When we think of ancient theatre today, we tend to think of Greek
theatre. Yet the Romans also had a lively and varied set of
theatrical traditions, which have had a considerable influence on
later drama. This book offers an introduction to these traditions,
including the origins of Roman theatre, the extant plays of
Plautus, Terence and Seneca, and the many works of comedy, tragedy,
mime and pantomime that no longer survive as written texts. The
emphasis throughout is on performance, the role of these theatrical
works within Roman society, and Roman theatre's legacy.
