How Theater Began
The word theater originated from the Greek word Theatron which means Place of Seeing. Plays were held on special events having religious importance, so the main idea revolved around ancient roman gods with the role of male gods being enacted with musculature, elegance and poise where as the female gods being enacted with beauty, grace and anatomically correct magnitude. Singing was also used as a means of enacting other than dialogue delivery. Along with the costumes masks were also a part of the actors attire. The Peoria IL stage was set in a realistic landscape backdrop.
During the middle ages storylines of the plays were mostly based on biblical incidences with an influence of the Byzantine and Gothic art. The Eastern art was mostly influenced by the Western medieval art. Not much concentration was paid to the realistic illustration. The Peoria costumes too were surface patterning, which means the basic color of the robe was emphasized upon rather than enhancing it by playing with light.
