Answer to Question 1

A play with a climactic structure has a tight-knit form that limits the scope of events, the time in which they transpire, and the number of characters. In climactic structure, the point of attack, the place where the action begins, is usually late in the story. Exposition, the part of the play where events that occurred before the start of the play are revealed, is provided through devices such as a confidant or a prologue. Circumstances build on each other through cause and effect, causing complication of the dramatic situation leading toward a climaxthe point of highest emotional intensityfollowed by a final resolution or denouement. Often this form is emotionally satisfying because of the way it builds in intensitykeeping spectators emotionally involved in the on stage events, and neatly resolves to allow a release of the emotions at the end of the play.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
