<p>My definition of classical I have posted in other threads as “Any English playwright before 1800”. But if the school itself gives you a different definition, you must follow their instructions. If all you know about Theatre History is Shakespeare, Chekhov, and Ibsen, you may want to learn more about Theatre History so that you can compete better.</p>
