A Drama with Comedy Ending in Tragedy

The conversation we will talk about today is the Theatre! Well, more so the two biggest story structures that everyone follows; Comedy and Tragedy. If you don't know these two

are the faces of tragedy and comedy. They come with different faces to give you nightmares as well. But back to the point, for there to be drama we need conflict. The conflict can be simple like going to the store because your house ran out of milk. Now all stories have drama in them. Life itself has drama but it's the kind of drama that influences how the story will go. Now before we go on, you must know that this is only an introduction post to the next mini-series posts that I'll be putting up. The writing prompt with the most votes is going to be the next thing that I'll upload to my blog. After that will be the mini-series. It goes like this:

1. I NEED DRAMA IN MY LIFE!
2. There's Nothing like a Good Comedy
3. Tragedy; Everyone You Know and Love is DEAD!

And that will conclude the mini-series and the next writing prompt poll should be up and running by the end of it. Naturally, the main focus is less on the theater and more on the writing part. What to look forward to is how these two genres influence the beginning, middle, and end of the story. How the characters get to the highest and lowest points in the story, and what is expected of the story. Our talk of drama will be more about how to get drama in a story and how to keep. Comedy is going to be about how funny or unfunny it will or should be. And lastly, tragedy is going to be a serious talk about how hard it is to write a tragedy.
