Introduction
“The history of drama stretches back to some of mankind's earliest civilizations. It's always fun to learn the
history of a play that you're watching. You could be seeing something that people have enjoyed for
hundreds or thousands of years. Drama as we know it got its start back in ancient Greece. Many of the
plays written during the Classical period, from 525 BC to 385 BC, are still performed today”
Cheever, J. 2011
