As indicated in the passage, prior to Aeschylus, drama ----.
Although Aeschylus is considered to be the first great
innovator of Western drama, it is sometimes difficult to
judge the full extent of the innovations he introduced,
since no plays by his predecessor, Thespis, have been
preserved. What we know about Greek drama before
Aeschylus suggests that it had developed gradually out
of choral lyrics, occasionally interrupted by short
dialogues between the chorus and a single speaker or
singer representing an individual character. Aeschylus
took the decisive step of introducing a second actor,
thus enabling for the first time a dialogue or conflict
between two individuals to take place on the stage and
in front of an audience. The innovations made possible
by Aeschylus’s introduction of a second character are
very significant. In addition, an actor could leave the
stage and reappear in the guise of another character,
thus permitting an increase in the overall number of
persons represented. In his later plays, Aeschylus used
three actors, allowing him to feature a large number of
characters, as in The Libation Bearers, the second play
of the Oresteia trilogy.
