Preceding film in origin by thousands of years, early plays and dances had elements common to film: scripts, sets, costumes, production, direction, actors, audiences, storyboards, and scores. Much terminology later used in film theory and criticism apply, such as mise en scene roughly, the entire visual picture at any one time. Owing to an absence of technology for doing so, moving visual and aural images were not recorded for replaying as in film.
