Write out the Conflict Statement for the play. Use the exact phrasing “The conflict is between [protagonist] who wants [super-objective] and [antagonist] who wants [super-objective].” Remember: The protagonist must be an actual character, but the antagonist can be an idea or another side of the protagonist. Just be sure that the what the protagonist and antagonist want are in opposition! 2. Write some phrases about what we learn in the Exposition about the Status Quo at the start of the play. NOTE: The rest of the questions are about the parts of the Plot Analysis/Super-Freytag structure discussed in the Plot Analysis Lecture Video. Remember that these must be in chronological order! (So, Inciting Incident happens early, Turning Point about halfway, Point of No Return about ¾ of the way/toward the end, and Climax and Denouement *very* close to the end!) 3. Pinpoint the exact quote or staging moment that is the Inciting Incident. Remember: The protagonist must be there, and the audience must ask themselves the Central Dramatic Question. a. What happened at this moment? b. Direct quote and/or stage direction from the play 4. Write out the Central Dramatic Question. Remember: this is the question that gets answered at the Climax, so it needs to be close ended, usually a yes/no question that has to do with the conflict statement.

Remember: This is also called the “Oh Shit Moment.” AKA “the straw that breaks the camel’s back.” a. What happened at this moment?b. Direct quote and/or stage direction from the play 7. Pinpoint the exact quote or staging moment that is the Climax. Remember: The protagonist must be there because this is when the protagonist and antagonist collide and/or “face off.” It is also where the CDQ gets answered. a. What happened at this moment?b. Direct quote and/or stage direction from the play 8. Rewrite the Central Dramatic Question and the answer to it. a. Re-write the Central Dramatic Question here (same as in #4): b. Write the answer to that question here (very simple – usually just “yes” or “no”): 9. Discuss the Denouement. Is there one? Fill out ONE of the below… If there was a Denouement, what happened during it (and if there was a line that would “sum it up”, copy it here,ORIf there wasn’t a Denouement, what do you think is the “new status quo” Arts & Humanities Writing Creative Writing VPA MISC Share QuestionEmailCopy link Comments (0)
