It was the worship of Dionysos that gave rise both<br>to tragedy and comedy. From the hymns sung in chorus<br>at his festivals arose the drama, or poetry of action,<br>when the leader of the chorus assumed the character of<br>Dionysos, and described with gestures some exploit of the<br>god, or enacted the part of any person engaged in the<br>adventure which his words described. The exclamations<br>and remarks of the chorus would, with the leaders utter-<br>ances, form dialogues, and here is found the germ of what<br>we call a play. Thespis, the father of Greek tragedy, a<br>ta festival of the year B. C. 535, introduced an independent<br>actor, with whom the leader of the chorus held a dialogu<br>during the pauses of the choral song.<br><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phrynichus_(tragic_poet)" class="extiw" title="w:Phrynichus (tragic poet)">Phrynichus</a> (flourished about B.
