Explanation:

First Question (Birthplace of Tragedy and Comedy)

Tragedy and comedy as theatrical genres originated in ancient Greece, specifically associated with the Theatre of Dionysus (used for Greek drama festivals honoring Dionysus, where these genres developed). The Noh Theatre is Japanese classical theatre, the Globe is Elizabethan (Shakespearean), Sydney Opera House is modern, and Teatro alla Scala is an opera house in Italy.

The Palace Theatre (in various locations, e.g., London) is known for hosting international touring theatrical productions. Teatro alla Scala focuses on opera, the Globe is a Shakespearean replica, Sydney Opera House has diverse but not primarily touring-focused in the same way, and Noh Theatre is traditional Japanese (not for international touring companies in the typical sense).

Answer:

The Theatre of Dionysus
