The ancient Greek myths.
Today's dramas have been influenced by Greek dramas in numerous ways, such as the use of complex characters, themes of fate and morality, and the incorporation of tragedy as a storytelling device. Greek dramatists like Sophocles and Euripides laid the foundation for modern theatrical conventions, influencing everything from plot structure to the exploration of human emotions and societal issues. The enduring legacy of Greek dramas continues to shape contemporary storytelling in both theater and other forms of media.

Dionysus was the Greek god of harvest and wine. He is important for Greek theater because the first dramas that had a similar, although primitive structure as the posterior works of authors as Sophocles and Euripides, were performed during the festivities dedicated to him, the 'City Dionysia'.
They are still important to us today because they inspire us and are works of art. They are stories of love, hatred, sadness, and so much more interesting things! So, that is why the Greek myths and dramas are still important today!
No. Theatre in ancient Greece was composed of all men.
Unruly mythic attendant of Dionysus who were half goat or horse and half human.
They would participate in the Olympics & watch plays (dramas) & I don't know for sure but they might have listened to music.
The main item that influenced Greek theatre was daily life. Many of the first plays were just plays on daily themes like love and loss. For dramas, expressions and emotions were exaggerated to express more to the audience.
The three popular themes of Greek dramas are Comedy, Tragedy, and Romance.
