How do I structure my paragraphs for an essay about a play?

The structure for a drama essay is similar to a normal prose essay, however with the addition of critics' interpretations. For instance, you would use the same Point, Quotation, Analysis idea but after your analysis you would include the intepretation of a critic and how their interpretation fits in with the point you are making.
