Drama is the expression of ideas, feelings, and human experience through movement, sound, visual image, and the realisation of role. In drama, real or imagined actions and events are enacted by placing a role in a setting of time and space, where action and tension create a focus. These dramatic elements combine with contrasts between movement and stillness, sound and silence, and darkness and light to communicate meaning in drama.
