Summary:

"The role of the chorus in ancient Greek drama has been conceived too narrowly by many scholars since Aristotle, and by modern audiences. Rosa Andújar argues that the chorus' multiple activities besides singing reveal it to be as nimble and dynamic as the actors that populated the ancient dramatic stage"-- Provided by publisher.
