History of theatre



The history of theatre charts the development of theatre over the past 2,500 years. While performative elements are present in every society, it is customary to acknowledge a distinction between theatre as an art form and entertainment and theatrical or performative elements in other activities.

Since classical Athens in the 6th century BC, vibrant traditions of theatre have flourished in cultures across the world.
