1. Agon– A conflict that takes place, often between the protagonist and antagonist. In Ancient drama, it is a formalized debate that usually occurs within a comedy.
2. Tragedy– A dramatic composition that typically has a great person, through an internal flaw or conflict with another opposing force, destined to downfall or destruction.
3. Monologue– a prolonged speech, or discourse made by a single speaker, especially one dominating a conversation.
4. Pantomime– The technique of showing emotions, actions, feelings, or anything of that nature by gestures that do not involve speech.
5. Scrim– A piece of fabric used as a drop, or border, for creating the illusion of a solid wall or backdrop under certain lighting conditions. It can also create a semitransparent curtain when it is lit from behind.
Great definitions in this post. The scrim sounds like it would be great to create silhouettes and I wonder how hard it would be, as an actor, to perform the pantomime.
