Very good! It says here that drama is the portrayal of fictional or non-
fictional events through the performance of written dialog (either prose or
poetry). And of course, it can be performed on stage, on film, or the radio.
A drama also is typically called plays, and their creators are known as
“playwrights” or “dramatists.”

Task 4. Aristotle’s Six Things Essential to Good Drama and the

Modern Theater – The Jumbled Book
In this next discussion, the teacher introduces a well-known philosopher
that contributed a lot in the field of dramatic arts, Aristotle. She informs
the students about the contribution of Aristotle and also goes over the six
things that Aristotle listed to be essential to a good drama through a game
called “The Jumbled Book”.

The elements of drama, class, has three major areas, and these are as
follows:

Three major areas:

 Literary elements
  Technical elements Is that Aristotle Ma’am?
 Performance elements
Before going over these elements, let’s first get to know this person. Do
you know who this is?

Yes! This is Aristotle. Now I know you’re all wondering why Aristotle is a
part of the history of drama. Just like any other philosopher, he contributed
a lot in drama and he also pointed out some things that are essential or
important in a good drama.

After introducing Aristotle, the teacher asks the students to play a game.
The students should raise their hand if they want to answer. The game is
called “The Jumbled Book” based on the movie, The Jungle Book. The
teacher will pick a student who volunteers to rearrange the words based
on the given meaning.

She then discusses about the modern theater. She also informs the
students about the revised things that are essential to a good drama for a
modern theater.

Since we already know about the six essential things that are to be found
in a good drama as per Aristotle, how about in a modern theater? In the
modern theater class, we have now seven things already that are listed.
And these are, please read:
 Characters
 Plot
 Theme
 Dialogue
