writing a simple script

0Hi,02br
02br
00Let us say that I am trying to write a simple and short script and you have some instructional comments/remarks in parentheses to instruct an actor or actress to consider when they are acting out the script. What is the guideline for that? Could I leave out the articles eventhough putting them in makes the context more clear to see?02br
02br
00John: I don't want to pick up the trash.02br
02br
00Mom: You should pick it up. It's yours. 00(as she was leaving (the??) room)02br
