According to Aristotle, there are six elements of drama, which he ranked in order of priority:
1. Plot—the arrangement of dramatic incidents
2. Characters—the people represented in the play
3. Thought or theme—the ideas explored
4. Language—the dialogue and poetry
5. Music
6. Spectacle—scenery and other visual elements
