Tragedy&_160;· Comedy&_160;· Drama&_160;· SatireDramas are performed in various media theatre, radio, film, and television. Drama is often combined with music and dance the drama in opera is sung throughout; musicals include spoken dialogue and songs; and some forms of drama have regular musical accompaniment (melodrama and Japanese No, for example).[2] In improvisation, the drama does not pre-exist the moment of performance; performers devise a dramatic script spontaneously before an audience.[3] The three types of drama composed in the city of Athens were tragedy, comedy, and satire. The origins of Athenian tragedy and comedy are far from clear, but they began (and continued to be) as a part of the celebrations of the god Dionysus, which were held once a year. Every year, the archon (or mayor) of Athens would select three authors to present three dramas and one satire play each at the City Dionysia. The tragedies were performed in three successive days, and on the last day the satires competed. All the plays were played in the Dionysos theatre in Athens, and the best author for both tragedy and comedy was chosen.[4] The chorus seems to have originated during 534 BC with a chorus singing a song about some legendary hero. Later the leader Thespis, rather than singing about the hero, began to think about the hero while impersonating him. Spoken dialogue between several actors was added, and the result was "tragedy" in the Greek form. The very first prize for tragedy went to Thespis in 534 BC.
