Theater and Roman Theater. But before that, let us define
theater.

What is a theater? Theater is a collaborative form of fine arts that

uses live performance, typically actors or
actresses, to present the experienced of real or

In other words, dramatic arts concerned with live

performances in which the action is precisely planned to
create a coherent and significant sense of drama.
Theater comes from the ancient Greek word
“theatron” which means a place for viewing
and “theaomai” which means to see, to watch
or observe.

These are the picture of the Greek and Roman Theater:
