Having eureka or not the impact of plays endings

Plays follow a pattern which guides the chronology and arrangement of major scenes of the play. The way this pattern was organized is made in such a way that they can heighten the suspense and capture the interest of the readers while they read the play. Since a play is enlivened by changing scenes and often differing paces, the transition from one part to another must be handle with scrupulous attention, leaving no immense gap or ensure that details are workable, if not totally harmonious.  It is in the ending of the play where a resolution is usually offered. A solution to all problems encountered by the characters are provide to pave the way for a consistent end a mystery is unlocked, a secret is revealed, or an event occurs to change the lives of the characters forever.  All of these sew the detailed resolutions.

In William Shakespeares Othello The moor of Venice, the denouement unfolds with the revelation of major details in the play. These details were exposed under the greatest clarity. Roderigo was part of the conspiratorial plan to kill Cassio whereas Othello was not. The telling of these detail makes us see the picture clearer. Even if Othello kills himself, we would not suspect that it was out of guilt why he did that. With that act, Shakespeare only rendered a tragic and dramatic ending to this classic play. The protagonist dies and while the hurly-burly has remained, at least they have dwindled, and are expected to be gone soon even if the play already closes off.

Oedipus the King, written by Sophocles also bear a tragic ending. Oedipus plucked his eyes, symbolizing his guilt-ridden realization of the serious sin he has done and the inescapable shame that comes with it. When his ignorance was broken and he found out that he has married his mother, he readily felt the vileness and impurity of himself. This ending was very powerful and meaningful as it reveals one vital thing  that the protagonists, no matter how flawless they may seem, are not exactly perfect. They are also vulnerable to losses and pains, committing sins and penalties, just like what happened to Oedipus.

Lastly, in Trifles, the manner by which the play was ended was more delicate and suspenseful. The mentioning of the transpirations was slow. There was a great deal of talking about the characters behaviors and their actions and attitudes towards one another. This technique by Susan Glaspell only builds suspense with admirable talent and control.

As the two women, Mrs. Peters and Mrs. Hale let go of the bird, the suspense finally allowed us to breathe, although not yet completely. The play will still lead us to a seemingly anticlimactic, but actually low-profiled yet vigorous ending. Without gore or excessive drama, Mrs. Hale ended the story by answering Mr.

Henderson and implying the success if their cover-up

The endings of these plays have different goals they can give the final clarity, leave something for the readers to think about and challenge their present actions. These endings are very important as they give the play the last chance to make a stand and imprint a last point to the readers.
