No, they were not allowed to perform at all.
No, they were not allowed to perform in theatre, only men. But a Greek man, Phrynichus, was the first man to use female characters but not actual females Hope this helps.

I believe you mean the chorus :) they act as one, speaking wholly in unison, making a social commentary on the situation on stage!
The Greek chorus was a group of approximately twelve actors who acted similar to modern narrators in Greek plays. They were integral to the plays and would sometimes have over half of the lines. Their job was to comment on the action in the play, either by speaking all together or by singing. They would dress similarly and wear masks. The role of the Greek chorus was to provide time for scene changes, give the main actors a break and time to prepare for the next scene, offer background information and information about the main themes, to offer an insight into a character's thoughts and feelings, and just generally act as a go-between for the audience and the actors. Incidentally, battles and murders were not allowed to be performed in Greek theatres and so the chorus would tell the audience of such events instead of them being acted out.

it was called the centre and then around the sides was where the chorus stood
No.... not back in the Greek days
Thespis emerged from the chorus as the first actor. Aeschylus added the second actor and decreased the chorus to twelve from fifty. Sophocles added the third actor and increased the chorus to fifteen. From that point, the number of actors and size of the chorus became frozen as the rules for the tragic competition.
I can't believe someone would write that. I was in a greek play and I was chorus and the chorus were just townsfolk who told the story. The spoke in rhyme.
they sang
a technique ;)
i think it makes you sing in a greek voice

No women were not allowed to act in the theater but were allowed to dance for a small while in the chorus in front of the stage. Women were not allowed to act as it was considered unwomanly and dishonourable.

The Chorus in Electra, the Greek tragedy by Euripides, consisted of the virgin country women from Mycenae.
