The chorus in classical Greek drama was a group of actors who described and commented on the main action with the help of recitations, songs and dancing. In the period when the significance of the chorus was significant, it was presented as the main performer opposite the lonely actor. This perfomance of the chorus was performed by the collective voice of all the actors of the chorus, emphasizing the dramatic character of the action.

The answer is: C.
