In ancient Greek plays, costumes often included flowing robes called chitons, adorned with masks that exaggerated facial expressions to convey emotions. Actors used simple props like staffs, swords, and wreaths to symbolize characters and themes. The scenery was minimal, typically consisting of a skene (a backdrop building) that could represent various locations, while the orchestra was a circular space for the chorus to perform. These elements combined to enhance the storytelling and engage the audience.

Yes. The Peacham drawing, a drawing of a contemporary production of Titus Andronicus, shows the actors in costume and using pikes as props.
