Hi everyone! I'm excited to learn about masks and costumes used in Greek theater! I'll be blogging about the origin and importance of different masks and costumes in ancient Greek plays. I want to learn about this topic because I thought it would be interesting to find out about the use of masks and costumes in tragedies and comedies in Greek times. The thing that grabbed my attention was that I saw lots of pictures of Greek masks with different expressions and never knew why they looked that way. I noticed pictures of masks that had serious and happy expressions, but none of the Greeks masks were very attractive! I wondered where the idea of making masks came from and why they looked different from each other, and how the Greeks matched them with costumes. I expect to find out what inspired the Greeks to begin using masks and costumes in plays and to cover up their faces..
