When it comes to Greek theater, music was an important factor for the performances. I mean, what is a musical with out the dramatic music or dramatic acting that goes along with the music? The Greeks had a section called the Chorus which was made up by two parts. The Strophe & Anti-Strophe. The chorus would serve as spectators of the play as well as the highlights for foreshadowing. The Strophe is made up of all male actors that go from right to left while the Anti-Strophe consists of all female actors that go from left to right. Through out the performances their job is to also contradict each other but always try to guide the characters to do the right thing just like it happens in Oedipus Rex. I believe that Erin's presentation group was really cool since they sang a song that resembled what chorus actually was.
