the Greeks preformed for festivals mostly, but the strange thing is, when they went on stage they wore masks that showed one expression for the entire time the were on stage, or until they left to go "backstage". the is one play in particular that is preformed during a festival for Dionysus, and is put on by a group of people that still follow the Greek gods. The play is called Antigone.
