What two statements describe a tragic drama?

Whatever two statements your teacher wishes you to regurgitate. This is clearly one of those questions. Personally, I would describe a tragic drama as one which ends up unhappily for the main characters, but that is one statement and probably not the one which your teacher dictated to you.

Othello strangles Desdemona and then Emilia comes in and Iago kills her and then Othello realizes that Desdemona was innocent so in the end he kills himself. Not a happily ever after ending, eh?


Is All's well that ends well a comedy or a problem play?

It is both. In the division of all of Shakespeare's plays into Histories, Comedies and Tragedies, All's Well is categorized with the comedies. And in fact, the play ends with Helena and Bertram being reconciled and set to enjoy a happy marital life. At least that is how it appears on the surface. It is difficult to know how sincere Bertram's enthusiasm is for the marriage. It is this doubt that makes some people call it a problem play.


How does the play Lockdown by Douglas Craven end?

Nobody really knows. It ends as a cliffhanger. In the end of the play, the shadowy man in the hallway finally knocks on the door after the hallway lights cut off. The students frightfully back away from the door, still unsure of what to do. That's where the play ends with the line, "It could be anybody," said by Sarah.
