Note 189 — Chapter II · THE GREEK THEATRE AND THE PRODUCTION OF PLAYS

Reading edition

We hear from the scholiast on Choephorœ, 900, that the same actor took the part of Pylades and of the servant who gives the alarm. The latter after arousing Clytæmnestra rushes within, and when the Queen has uttered five lines Pylades appears accompanying Orestes. This example is given by Haigh³, p. 232.
