drama

drama
A story represented by action, the representation being as if the real persons were introduced and employed in the action itself. 4 Am J2d Amuse § 3. It is ordinarily designed to be spoken, but may be represented in pantomime, when the actors use gesticulations, but do not speak; in the form of ballet where the portrayal is by dance; or in opera where music takes the place of poetry and of ordinary speech, and the dramatic treatment is essentially different from the other methods of representation. Bell v Mahn, 121 Pa 225, 15 A 523.
