The classifications into which modern scholars have divided Old Comedy are usually expressed in six elements:

  1. Prologue (setting the theme of the play),
  2. Parodos (introduction of the chorus),
  3. Agon (argumentation),
  4. Parabasis (choral ode),
  5. Episodes (resolving the Agon) and
  6. Exodos (celebratory conclusion).
