Why was greek tragedies set off stage?

Greek tragedies were set off stage because the action primarily occurred in the open space of the orchestra, which was the performance area in front of the stage. The skene, or stage building, was used for actors to change costumes and sometimes to serve as a backdrop, but most of the dramatic action took place in the orchestra. Additionally, having the action occur off stage allowed for a focus on verbal storytelling and the dramatic impact of the dialogue.
