GREEK THEATER (FROM 7 TH CENTURY B. C. ) • Created to celebrate religious festivals in honor of Dionysus (a fertility god). • Chorus chanted lines from an “orchestra” as opposed to on a raised platform. • Masks used to allow the actors to play more than one character and to portray desired emotion. • High-soled boots added height but limited movement. • Amphitheater built into a hillside, sometimes seated 20, 000 people.

GREEK THEATER CONT. • Greek tragedies based on popular myths. • Characters struggle against hostile forces ending in defeat and ultimately death. • A series of dramatic episodes separated by choral odes (mini-songs). • Originally, rarely more than three actors on stage (chorus). • Hundreds of Greek tragedies written. Fewer than 35 remain.

CHORAL ODES (INTERLUDES) • Delivered in dithyrambs (homage to Dionysus) • 2 parts: • Strophe: “turn” or 1 st side of argument. Dance right to left. • Antistrophe: “turn back” or 2 nd side of argument. Dance left to right. (Think point and counter-point) • Epode: “after song”. Not always included. Typically in different meter. Strophe and antistrophe unite. Two opposing sides often make the correct decision difficult for the audience to discern. Example of Chorus (Antistrophe at 1: 10)

GREEK THEATER: KEY CONTRIBUTORS • Thespis (534 B. C): created the first “actor” who broke away from the chorus and would speak to the chorus as an individual character. This is why actors are also known as “Thespians”. • Aeschylus: introduced the idea of using a second and third actor which allowed for interaction between characters. • Sophocles: used chorus less to create more dialogue between characters. • Euripides: introduced naturalism and psychology including exploring the portrayal of women.
