Abstract
The word „drama? comes from the Greek word “dran” meaning “to act”, “to perform” and it has several meanings. Drama is a rooted from pre-history. All humankind has and had concern with life and death and has evolved ceremonies and rituals to help deals with the perennial questions of “where did I come from?” and “where do I go after death?”. These were usually answered by some kind of belief in an outside power, an almighty being or beings, to give the hope of an after-life; to avoid extinction at death.
