Analogy — Publication and lead creative role:\nMagazine : Editor :: Drama : ?\n\nPick the principal creative/managerial role for a drama, parallel to an editor for a magazine.

Introduction / Context:
An editor leads a magazine’s content and presentation; a director leads the creative realization of a drama (stage or screen). The relation is “work/institution : head creative/ editorial role.”

Concept / Approach:
Choose the role that exerts primary creative control and coherence over the work, analogous to an editor’s function for a magazine.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:

• Player/Actor: Performers, not overall creative leads.
• Manager: Administrative; not the primary creative head.
• None of these: Invalid since “Director” fits squarely.

Final Answer:
Director
