Three-Act Story Breakdown

ACT ONE (Setup): INT. ABANDONED THEATER - NIGHT MAYA stands alone on stage, holding her mother's old dance program. She's been hired to demolish this building tomorrow. Conflict: She wants to honor the past but needs money for her daughter's surgery.

MAYA: (to herself) Just one more night.

ACT TWO (Confrontation): Maya discovers a mysterious investor wants to preserve the theater. She must decide: take the demolition payment or fight for restoration. The midpoint: She learns the investor is her estranged father.

ACT THREE (Resolution): Maya chooses legacy over quick cash. She and her father rebuild the theater together.

Character Arc Example

SARAH (Protagonist): Starts isolated and financially desperate. Ends connected to family and community. Her need was money. Her want was meaning.

INT. COFFEE SHOP - MORNING

JACK sits opposite SARAH across a small table. Silence. Two cups of untouched coffee.

SARAH: You have thirty minutes.

JACK: I don't deserve them.

SARAH: (beat) No. You don't. Use them anyway.

Jack reaches for his coffee with a shaking hand. Sarah notices but doesn't react.
