"To come into collision or disagreement; be contradictory, at variance, or in opposition; to clash"
Conflict is the essence of dramatic story telling, conflict may manifest as external or internal, but it is without a doubt that somewhere within a storyline, play, book or film there is conflict of some nature. In story telling there is always a villain or the "bad guy", out to cause trouble usually due to the opposing ideas of the hero, this type of conflict can be intriguing, however to me, inner conflict is much more compelling. Internal conflict is the struggle that is seen in the mind of a character. The hero against himself. The psychology of conflict.
The word "clash" from the Google definition helped to act as a stimuli, the word clash to me, seems hectic and uncontrollable and therefore the idea of Physical Theatre really appeals to me for our given Unit 3 theme "Conflict." As Physical Theatre is very energetic and unforgettable it achieves the dramatic side you'd expect to see in an argument.
