Ex-4: Dramatic Elements (Dialogue)

Instruction: Underline the sentences that are written as dialogue.
The sentences that show dialogue are numbers 2, 3, 6, 7, and 10, as they are written in script form where characters speak directly. These lines include the character’s name followed by spoken words, which is a key feature of dialogue in dramatic elements. The remaining sentences are narration or actions and do not represent spoken interaction between characters.

A narrator explains scene transitions and helps performers understand timing. Students practice delivering lines to show emotions and relationships. During rehearsal, one character expresses concern while another gives a calm response in reply. The audience learns teamwork through each dialogue delivered on stage. Lighting supports the mood, while actors focus on expressive delivery. The script guides every movement and action planned by the team.
