FEAUTURES OF ONE ACT PLAY ARE:

 One act plays are confined in one act only.

 The scenes may be multiple and in variations.
 The write up of the play is concise and precise.
 The aim of the play is intended towards producing one effect.
 The scenes are dominated by a single situation.
 It has a beginning, a middle and an end, like the dramas.

Plot - The plot in terms of literary genre refers to the sequence or series of
events. The events together form the plot. It is a part of storytelling. (Asking concept checking questions regarding about the topic throughout the
discussion and student will give their insights about it.)
What is the importance of one act play?
Like all fiction, the primary purpose of drama is to entertain, evoke feelings,
and teach the audience a lesson about life.
What is a One-Act Play?
A one-act play is to a full-length play as a short story is to a
novel.

What is an act in a play?

An act is a part of a play defined by elements such as rising action, climax,
and resolution. To be more specific, the elements that create the plot of a play
and divide it into acts include the exposition, which gives information, setting
up the rest of the story.

What is plot in one-act play?

For a full-length play, the plot is the sequence of events that leads the hero
(and the audience) on the journey. In a one-act play there is really only time
for one significant event. This is the determining place for the hero, where all
is won or lost.

What is a one-act play called?

 Binalonan, Pangasinan
First Semester, Academic Year 2022-2023
In recent years, the 10-minute play known as "flash drama" has emerged as a
popular sub-genre of the one-act play, especially in writing competitions. The
origin of the one-act play may be traced to the very beginning of drama: in
ancient Greece, Cyclops, a satyr play by Euripides, is an early example.

How do you start a one-act play?

Develop the action first, then compose the dialogue before you decide
anything else. Keep the plot simple for a one act play and it should move
consistently throughout the play. Develop the characters. Write out a character
sketch beforehand to help you flesh out your characters and bring them to life.

What are the six elements of one act?

In a one act play, all elements that are mentioned are usually present. There is
a setting, a plot, a structure, characters, conflict, and theme. In one act plays,
there is only one setting and the plot or conflict of the story is rather simple.

What is the difference between an act and a scene?

Both an act and a scene are part of a play or performance. The
main difference between the two is the length and depth of each.
An act consists of several scenes and can run for a long length in
a performance. On the other hand, a scene features a brief situation of action
and dialogue.

What is conflict in one-act play?

Conflict generally occurs when a character cannot achieve an objective due to
an obstacle. This obstacle may be internal or external – between characters or
between characters and
their environment. Conflict can be shown in a variety of ways, for example
through physical, verbal or psychological means.

4. Characters - People involved in the story.
5. Conflict - when a character cannot achieve an objective due to an obstacle.
6.Theme – it is what the story is truly about at its core. It is often the lesson or
moral we are meant to take away from this particular story.

The plot diagram shows how the main events in the play are organized into a
plot. Come up with a plot diagram as to the presentation of the character’s
thoughts, feelings and
actions.

A. Introduction or Exposition: explains the situation with which the story

begins. It introduces the characters and describes the setting.
B. Rising Action: presents the complication.
C. Climax: is the highest point of interest, usually a question is raised.
D. Falling Action: presents the solutions to the problem.
E. Conclusion: situation with which the story ends
