The play-script for a theatrical production includes [a] a full description of the set/props for each scene, [b] details of the time in which the scene happens, and [c] explanations about all the significant actions/movements that have to take place while its characters mouth their dialogues.
...These are intended to guide the play-production's director, set designer, lighting specialist, and actors, to properly interpret what the playwright visualised.
...A movie-script includes all these, plus 'shot'-breakdowns as well - which indicate how the narration should be composed of a series of artfully mingled and linked long shots (LS), medium shots(MS), close-ups (CU) and extreme close-ups (ECU) - which will subliminally make the viewers feel that they too are part of the screened action !
Oversimplified though this is, it outlines the basic differences between a theatrical and movie script.

...In the 'whole world' there are only SEVEN basic colours - which include violet, indigo, green, blue, yellow, orange and red (VIGBYOR). Billions of combinations and permutations of these colours are possible - but these are only hues, and NOT colours.
Incidentally, when colours are to be emitted as light, the additive colour system, which uses combinations of the three primary colours, red, green, and blue, is used.
And when colours are to be reproduced by painting and/or printing, the subtractive colour system, which uses the four primaries cyan, magenta, yellow and black, is used.
In both the additive and subtractive colour systems, the primary colours are applied in varying ratios - to create all the hues and tones needed.

Congrats.

The main difference is in the format. See the examples below; the first is a screenplay, the second is a stage play. Stage play format is more flexible too; it's not always exactly like this, while screenplay format is set in stone.
Screenplay writing is required to be very concise, and generally must not be more than 120 pages long. Stage plays tend to ramble a bit more and don't have such stroct guidelines.
