dramatist can't make \act and \DramPer work

Question

I'm new to the use of both LaTeX and dramatist, so I suppose I'm doing some very crude error here.

I tried to get some example of dramatist code and copy paste, but I nevertheless have the problem. So here is my code, coming from another example on this website where I dumped some data from a Tchejov Play. My problem is that I don't have the expected result for \act and \DramPer (no act title, nor Dramatispersonae list appearing).

With this code, I get a blank document with only "author/title/date". If I put the \DramPer and \act lines as commentary (%\DramPer), I get my text.

What am I missing?

LaTeX code

% !TEX TS-program = pdflatex
% !TEX encoding = UTF-8 Unicode

% This is a simple template for a LaTeX document using the "article" class.
% See "book", "report", "letter" for other types of document.

\documentclass[a4paper,11pt]{memoir} % use larger type; default would be 10pt

\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} % set input encoding (not needed with XeLaTeX)

%%% Examples of Article customizations
% These packages are optional, depending whether you want the features they provide.
% See the LaTeX Companion or other references for full information.

%%% PAGE DIMENSIONS
% \usepackage{geometry} % to change the page dimensions
% \geometry{a4paper} % or letterpaper (US) or a5paper or....
% \geometry{margin=2in} % for example, change the margins to 2 inches all round
% \geometry{landscape} % set up the page for landscape
%   read geometry.pdf for detailed page layout information



%%% PACKAGES
\usepackage{dramatist}

%%% END Article customizations

%%% The "real" document content comes below...

Answer 1

OK, so @Akira Kakuto got it in one: the \DramPer and \act commands add a blank page whereas \scene or \section does not. I simply didn't notice... sorry all, and thanks for your answers.

The layout without these commands fit in just one page.
