The first theatres which were open were built during the barbarian times to effect executions as public warnings. Theatres then became terraced amphi theatres such as the Rome's Collesium where cruel games of lesser blood and gore between man and beast were conducted till one's death. Proper theatres for staging plays existed during the time of Sophocles.
