o Get familiar with the technical vocabulary and theater

o Analyze stand of the speakers based on the explicit

Play
A play is a story to be presented on stage before an
audience. The reader with his imaginative mind interacts
with the play, and as he does this, he visualizes the drama
from different angles: as the play's own director, actor,
costume and set designer, lighting technician, make-up
artist, and audience.
Characteristics which distinguish drama from other forms
of literature are:
• its immediacy-the rapidity which things happen; and
• its objectivity-that is, the dramatist leaves us to infer
what he means through dialogs and actions.
Other important elements of drama

Language
The use of language in performance can be in
verbal or nonverbal form. You see language as
a spoken text as well. That means it is written
in script which is executed or performed.
Language is normally spoken but it can be
also sung or maybe utterly nonsense in order
to make a dramatic effect.
Other important elements of drama

Sound
Modern theatrical practice relies on sound to assist in a
number of ways which can be useful in creating atmosphere
or mood.
Actors and their bodies can construct effective sound in
performance.
Small props can also create sound effects that can be used
live during a show.
Other important elements of drama

Other uses of sound involve the use of technology:


instrumental recordings and sound effects on CDs and mp3
players (though this use of sound is technically a stagecraft
element in the theater, not a dramatic element).
Reading: Relate context to particular issues concerns or
dispositions in real life.

Listening Activity

Act I, Scene 4 of the play Fences provides a glimpse of Troy's


past and the kind of family that he had. It gives us a different
side of Troy's character and may perhaps affect your
perception of him. Do you understand him better? Do you
empathize with him? Do you feel sorry for him? If he were
your father, what would you do?
When analyzing the stand of a speaker in a speech or a
character in a play, it is important to pay attention to the cues
being given.
Listening Activity

These cues are explicit statements. They are meant to help


you and me in understanding the speaker's or character's point
of view. Your teacher will let you watch the TED Talk
presented by George Carey. It is about the future of families.
Listen carefully and do Activity 5 as you listen.
Are Families Still Cool?

insights with your teacher and classmates. What is the
speaker's stand regarding the topic of his speech?
