What was it like to go to the theatre nearly 2500 years ago? Greek theatre has survived
through the ages as a powerful and influential art form. This album introduces what
early Greek theatres looked like and the kind of audience they attracted. Using the
Theatre of Dionysus as a starting point, experts discuss the significance of attending
the theatre as a civic occasion, associated with the political and cultural achievements
of Athens. Through archaeology and analysis of contemporary art forms, such as decoration
on pottery, a picture is built up of ancient Greek theatre. The album reveals how
precious Greek texts have survived, and how Aeschylus’ tragedy 'Persians' has been
interpreted in modern theatre. This material forms part of The Open University course
A219 Exploring the classical world. |
