Characteristics of Drama Education Help Sep 10, 2015·3 min read
A drama is a piece of writing, which is artistically presented with dialogues. A drama is attractive, impactful and real as it presents characters along with a natural and credible aspects. It is very similar to a short story as it also comprises characters, plot, setting as well as symbolism. However, short story and novel have a demarcation as these are not performed in front of the audience, whereas a play is meant to be performed on stage. In short, a drama provides a live setting where the characters are real and demonstrates the story in a natural way. Moreover, a play carries more influence and mostly, it motivates the audiences easily. As we all know, things, which are visual have more trustworthiness and fidelity.
