In Ancient Greek Theatre seating was somewhat related to social class, but not completely. It's actually quite simple to explain. There was only two kinds of seating. VIP seating was for priests and officials of the city. These seats were called Prohedria. These were considered seats of honor. In the theatre anyone was welcome to watch the plays and musicals. Attending the theatre was considered so important that the government paid for the poor to attend. This meant that everyone could attend the theatre regardless of social class. In conclusion, Ancient Greek Theatre demonstrated social class, but still included both rich and poor people.
