Differences in plot elements were found in the situation, generating circumstances, rising action, and denouement stages, while the climax stage remains the core of the story’s conflict. Regarding characters and characterization, no significant differences were found in the main characters, while changes were evident in the secondary characters and the characterization of supporting characters as a form of adaptation to dramatic needs and local culture.
