Adam is staging one of his own creative writing stories at a local theater festival. Compare his original story to the adaptation:

Original: They moved through the riverbed, mud sucking at their galoshes and turning each step to slow motion. Pedro paused, squinted into the rain, and wrung a gush of water out of his cloth cap before planting it soggily back on his head. He told Benjamin that this was absolutely the last time that he would ever go fishing.

Staged: (Riverbed. Sound of rainfall. PEDRO and BENJAMIN move awkwardly, with large steps, as though stuck in the mud.) PEDRO: I’m telling you, Benjamin, this is the last time. (takes off his hat and wrings it out, puts it back on his head.) The absolute last time. BENJAMIN: The last time what? PEDRO: The last time that I ever, ever, go fishing with you.

B. By changing the setting to a different one from the original.
C. By changing the story’s descriptions of the setting into dialogue.
