Question

which elements of a play are considered literary elements? select three options.
□ characters and dialogue
□ actors’ interpretations
□ setting and plot
□ facial expressions
□ stage directions

Explanation:

Literary elements of a play are core components that form the written, narrative structure of the work, distinct from performance-specific choices. Characters and dialogue are foundational to the story's development and interaction. Setting and plot establish the story's context and sequence of events. Stage directions, while guiding performance, are part of the written text that shapes the story's presentation. Actors' interpretations and facial expressions are performance elements, determined during staging rather than being inherent literary components of the play's text.

Answer:

• characters and dialogue
• setting and plot
• stage directions
