What is the difference between the elements of a drama and a regular fiction story? How does the set and stage direction add to the suspense in this play?

how is this math? but Drama is created and shaped by the
elements of drama which, for the Drama
ATAR course, are listed as: role,.
character and relationships, situation,.
voice, movement, space and time.
language and texts, symbol and
metaphor, mood and atmosphere,.
audience and dramatic tension.
The primary difference between play and
drama is that play is a dramatic
performance on the stage, whereas
drama is a literary composition in the
form of prose or verse, that portrays
dialogue showing conflict which the main
character attempts to resolve.
Essentially, drama is distinct from other
literature because it is performed in front
of an audience by actors to tell a story.
along with the use of a set, lighting,,
music, and costumes.

Explanation:

Drama is created and shaped by the elements of drama which, for the Drama ATAR course, are listed as: role, character and relationships, situation, voice, movement, space and time, language and texts, symbol and metaphor, mood and atmosphere, audience and dramatic tension.

The primary difference between play and drama is that play is a dramatic performance on the stage, whereas drama is a literary composition in the form of prose or verse, that portrays dialogue showing conflict which the main character attempts to resolve.

Essentially, drama is distinct from other literature because it is performed in front of an audience by actors to tell a story, along with the use of a set, lighting, music, and costumes.

The five elements of drama are the thought, theme, and ideas; action and plot; characters; language; and music. The spectacle, consisting of the scenery, props, costumes and special effects of a production, is also an element of drama.

Characters, setting, plot, conflict, point of view, and theme are six key elements for writing fiction.

Hope it helps
