The greek theatre


Western theatre date’s back performed in Athens and became a popular part of a festival called ‘Dionysia’ (named after the Greek God Dionysus) the reason we are researching the Greek amphitheatre is because it shows us the musical origins. 550 and 220 BC in the Greek theatre there used to be performance in the ancient time for example women's were not allowed on stage that's why only man were performing. Each performance there could be more then 14.000 people.
