"This three-part BBC Four historical series looks at the extraordinary power and influence of Ancient Greece through the prism of one of its most important cultural spaces: the theatre. Written and presented by classicist Dr Michael Scott, the series examines how the ancient Greeks gave birth to tragedy and comedy. Spanning from the 6th century BC to the 2nd century AD, this fascinating and comprehensive series tells the story of how theatre spread throughout Greece and beyond, becoming a benchmark of civilisation, not just for Greeks, but for the world then and now"--Container.
