CONFLICT is an essential part of a play and in identifying what motivates a characater. Conflict is not just about arguments, rather it is any obstacle that faces the main character and keep them from their objective (goal).
*There are four kinds of conflict:
Man vs. Man (physical): The protagonist struggles with his physical strength against other people (antagonist), forces of nature, or animals.
Man vs. Circumstances: The protagonist struggles against fate, or the circumstances of life facing him/her.
Man vs. Society (social): The leading character struggles against ideas, practices, or customs of other people.
Man vs. Himself/Herself (psychological): The protagonist struggles with himself/herself; with his/her own soul, ideas of right or wrong, physical limitations, choices, etc.
