General Information

The Centre for Ancient Drama, in response to the demands of the times for the utilisation of technological developments in the recording and processing of cultural information, is developing a programme of multiple documentation of ancient drama. The aim of the programme is the creation of an electronic data base, accessible to anyone interested, which include bibliographical and documentary data, as well as more general information on ancient drama and performances of it.

The Centre's data base has been designed on two basic axes: performance and the relevant press cuttings. The performance axis includes two sub-sections: the documentation of Greek professional performances of the last decade (1991-2000) and the documentation of school performances on a Panhellenic scale, going as far back in time as it is possible to locate the relevant data. The design provides for communication between these two individual sub-sections in such a way as to provide a comprehensive picture of facts about performances and of theoretical approaches to ancient drama. This research programme started out in January 2000 and is now fully under way.
