Publisher's Synopsis
This groundbreaking study of ancient Greek drama challenges the conventional wisdom that only three actors ever appeared on stage at a time. Rees argues that there is ample evidence to suggest that the 'rule of three' was not an ironclad law, and that many productions likely featured more than three actors. Drawing on a wide range of textual and archaeological evidence, Rees offers readers a fresh and provocative interpretation of one of the foundational texts of Western literature.
