What are the elements of a one-act play?
Setting – is the place, together with other
conditions, such as time and the environment,
involved in which the events occur. The setting can
be presented through the visual element deals with
the scenes, costumes, and special effects. The
setting can as well be enhanced by using viewable
elements, sound effects, and music.
Characters – are the people, or sometimes animals,
subjected in the drama and are portrayed by the actors and
actresses in the play. Characters can be categorized into
three types according to the roles they play. The main
character of the play is known as the protagonist. The
antagonist is the character who opposes the protagonist.
The other characters that are neither the protagonist nor
the antagonist are called the secondary characters.
Dialogue – conversation between two

or more characters. It is intended to
be spoken by the character and heard
by an audience who understands
what it is all about.
Plot – referring to the play's basic storyline, is
the structure of a play that tells what happens
as the story goes. The plot structure can be
divided into six stages: exposition, inciting
incident, rising action, climax, falling action,
and denouement.
Theme – the central, general message, or the controlling

topic about life or people the author wants to get across
through a literary work. Most plays have a theme or main
ideas, such as the value of prayer, the rewards of showing
patience, or the healing power of love. The play's outcome
implies some lessons or morals about the theme or affirms
some meaningful observation or conclusion about life.
Genre – is the type of play. The

examples of the play's genre
include tragedy, comedy, romantic,
mystery, and historical play.
Audience –is a group of people who watch the play.

An audience can be the most important element of
drama to be considered since it is the audience that
determines whether the play is successful. Many
playwrights also write the drama's plot with great
concern regarding their groups of the audience
rather than their interests.
