Being a Theban elder who has certain skills is what it means to be in the chorus in 'Oedipus Rex'. The chorus is supposed to include the older and the wiser individuals of Thebes. Its members know how to dance and sing. They also know how to comment on what's happening in the play. The two sets of responsibilities are meant to entertain the audience and to keep play goers informed of developments in action and character in the play.
The movie a Chorus line is about people going through the audition process just to be in the chorus in a musical! It shows each ones kind of journey of how they got into dance, and what they hope to accomplish!
The purpose of a chorus is to help the actors role become more emphasized throughout the play. The chorus has a few actions here and there and sometimes they have a dance at some stages. HI STONE
It is a formation dance of a group or large number of people assembling themselves on the floor all moving toward the same direction, alignment and dancing the same pattern of dance steps. A Line dance is similar to a chorus (as in Musical theatre "Chorus Line") in that way that a group of people moving about in the same direction, facing the same alignment and dancing the same patterns of dance steps and everyone is moving at the same time to the beat of the music being played out. It could be ranging from a group of 5 or more people on the dance floor as groups, assembly or chorus.

Entertaining and wise is the way in which the chorus can be characterized in the Theban plays.Specifically, the term Theban plays refers to the dramatic works "Oedipus Rex," "Oedipus at Colonus" and "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.). The three plays each include a chorus of Theban elders. The elders are expected to dance and sing across the stage as well as to explain the onstage events and characters and to represent the collective wisdom of Thebes' accomplished senior citizens.
