However, you could also use these terms depending on the context:
* Dramaturge: This term is more specific and refers to someone who specializes in the analysis and development of plays.
* Screenwriter: If the drama is written for film or television.
* Author: A broader term that can be used for anyone who writes, but not as specific as playwright.
* Dramatist: A more formal and literary term for playwright.
The best choice will depend on the specific situation.
