Hey all,

On an earlier post i spoke about GREEK CINEMA and how we dont have a lot of it. So i searched and i found some really cool pics inorder for you to understand more about GREEK THEATRE.

I m posting the architectural sketchs and how an ancient greek theatre was built. Remember there were no microphones, nor speakers to support the performance, so the actor had to have a good VOICE and an even better arthrosis. No matter of course how good you were in the above mentioned qualities, one of the best things about an ancient greek theatre is the way it was constructed to isolate other sounds and only absorb more of the sounds coming form the scene. Look at the pics and imagine how cool is that to achieve..

There is an old saying that : if you stand on the top of the public seats and another person lights up a match in the scene you can hear the noise :)

Cheers
Thanos
