The correct answer is B defiant I just took the test
Answer:
- recite the prologue and epilogue
- provide background information
- comment on the action of the play
Explanation:
In ancient Greece theatre, the chorus represented a group of actors who recited the prologue and epilogue, provided background information, commented on the main actions of the play, and performed different songs or dances.
At the beginning of the Ancient Greek theatre, the Chorus was a group of 50 men danced and sang lyric hymns which praised the god Dionysus. Eventually, the chorus was reduced to 12 – 15 performers, and took a more active role in storytelling, by representing a collective character or linking the audience with the piece itself. The chorus was often the same sex as the main character.

Playwrights use stage directions to give more insight into how the characters should be interacting with each other. Shakespeare uses actually very few stage directions compared to some modern playwrights who detail every move a character is supposed to make.
Stage directions help develop the plot because they help the actors and audience physically move in the space to move the action forward. For example, in Caesar we get the stage direction "<span>CASCA first, then the other Conspirators and BRUTUS stab CAESAR". We understand through the dialogue that they are going to stab Caesar, but this gives us the person who stabs first and the person who stabs last. This helps give meaning to the characters because we learn a lot about Casca (he is the most willing to start the violence) and Brutus (he is still hesitating and it takes him the longest to actually be able to follow through). Also, it develops the plot in the obvious way that if this action does not occur, the rest of the play could not happen.</span>
