Masks in Greek Theater The use of masks in ancient Greek theater draw their origin from religious rituals. The members of the chorus wore masks, usually similar to each other but completely different from the leading actors. Because the number of actors varied from one to three, they had to put on different masks, in order to play more roles. The actors were all men. The mask was therefore necessary to let them play the female roles. Usually the masks were made of linen, wood, or leather. A marble or stone face was used as a mold for the mask. Human or animal hair was also used. The eyes were fully drawn but in the place of the pupil of the eye was a small hole so that the actor could see.

Today’s Assignment—Background on Greek Theater/Antigone Use the information on p. 247, p. 250-251 to complete the “Trivia Game” worksheet. Your “answers” should be in the form of a question.

Based on the information in the scenarios, write an introduction to your character. Be sure to: Include background information from the character’s scenario. Provide an explanation that describes the character. Predict how the character’s motivations might conflict with those of other characters. Pick one of the main characters from Antigone, and create a mask that reflects one of the emotions from the chart you completed. Be creative.
