Elements of Drama
In drama, a mime is a person who conveys a
story by means of pantomime. Mimes
nowadays are thought of as people in white
face paint and black clothes doing comedy.
Naturalism in drama refers to the belief that a play should try to
represent reality as closely as possible. Realism in drama occurs when a
play resembles real life, such as showing political events that occurred
within a country. Depending on the era, these events were relevant to
society.
Elements of Drama are:
The first element of drama, explicitly the thought, theme, and
ideas of a production, describes what the play means as
conflicting to what happens throughout the plot. It deals with
the complete messages of a production.
The second element of drama, action and plot, deals with
what happens throughout the production as well as the main
conflicts. It includes the exposition, the rising action, climax,
falling action and resolution of the play.
