What is Structure in Drama? The way the Drama is split into sections and the way Time Place and Action are organised within the play.

The structure of a Drama can be… LINEAR NON-LINEAR

LINEAR A naturalistic approach where events happen one after the other. Time is chronological and the story follows a beginning, middle and end structure.

Linear plays often follow the traditional dramatic arc structure Beginning of the resolution where problems begin to resolve and questions are answered Conflict is introduced to create dramatic tension Turning point, something changes could be good or bad Introduces characters, sets scene with Time, place of action identified Resolution – Final conclusion, happy or sad ending Linear plays often follow the traditional dramatic arc structure

Non-Linear FLASHBACK/ FORWARD In this structure, events do not follow each other in time order. Can include flashback or flashforwards. can use pattern or repetition. Time and place can be ambigous and dreamlike. Narrators can be used to help explain complicated timelines. FLASHBACK/ FORWARD
