What is more dramatic than theater? Especially "Phantom of the Opera". This is the first image that comes to my mind when someone mentions the word "drama".
I have heard people say with disgust "family drama", in an effort to minimize whatever it is you're talking about, to get you to shut up, because they don't want to hear it.
Apparently, some people don't want to hear about others' family problems.
Yes, that's okay, but don't try to shush somebody about it.
Got news for you "shushers": EVERYBODY HAS FAMILY DRAMA.
It does no good to try and deny it.
The shushers probably have more drama than you do.
LIFE IS DRAMA.
Get over it.
