What is the role of the chorus in 'Antigone' and how does the chorus conform to society?
The provision of musical interludes in the intervals between the scenes of the play is one role of the chorus. The interval is called the 'stasimon'. The scene is called an 'episode'. The provision of a commentary on what happens in the play is another chorus role. So the roles come down to education and entertainment.The chorus conforms to society by making sure that it meets the expectations of the audience. That audience is drawn from segments of ancient Greek society. The ancient Greek audience expects to find a certain length and meter in the choral odes. They expect to hear the chorus singing and see the chorus dancing in first one direction and then the opposite. They expect to understand the play's backgroundand course of events through the choral commentaries. They expect to witness the transmission of legends and myths that reconcile the actions of mortals with the will of the gods.
