Summary/Abstract: Not much is known about the history of the evolution of acting. Sure, we have a clue: it all started in Ancient Greece and it become one of the most loved forms of art. But still, what we know a lot more about is the history of theatre – which is something completely different. The development of the art of acting over the past few thousand years is nothing more but a merry-go-round; a continuous moving strip with ups and downs. Acting underwent dramatic changes and not only that, but what we see today happening on a theatre stage, was not acceptable, was not possible, was not even considered acting 200 years ago. Buckle up. This is how actors used to work.
