According to a Greek chronicle of the 3rd century BC, Thespis is also the first winner of a theatrical award. He takes the prize in the first competition for tragedy, held in Athens in 534 BC. So theater officially started in Ancient Greece sometime around 534 BC.

∙ 7y agoIt depends on how you define 'theatre'. The best answer is that the first substantial record of plays is from the Greeks. They used it as part of celebrations for the gods - originating from singinging and dancing in forest glades by the participants, it came to a stages with an altar and an audiences which were then developed with an actor/commentator, then two actors, then three actors..
