Greek drama originally was designed to praise gods, mostly Dionysus. The plays were not tragic or comic and were designed to praise the gods and usually consisted of songs or ceremonies that were designed to raise their value among the people. Eventually they became a bit more down to Earth and dialogue and actors were developed.
