The theatrical culture that flourished in ancient Greece between 550 a. C. and 220 a. C., time in which the Greek polis began to fall under Roman dominion. The development of the show took place in an open-air semicircular space called orchestra, in which a great variety of artistic performances (dances, recitations, and musical pieces) were performed, as well as civic and religious events. The genres of drama, comedy and tragedy were presented for the first time, inspired mainly by aspects of the societies, the wars between the polis, the medical wars, and their set of beliefs about Greek mythology and the Olympian gods.
