A unique experience - A different Athens experience, normally we explore attractions and sites like usual tourists. I’m glad we booked this performance, per my daughter’s choice. The rooftop theatre with Acropolis backdrop was amazing. The 4-men performance was excellent, we enjoyed it so much. It was a good decision to come earlier we had the front row seats, throw blankets and drinks were provided. Good job guys!

Friends and Foes, laughs and tears - We laughed along with the old women and felt the tragedy of Medea as well as the wrought decision made by Antigone and her sister. It was an incredible setting under the Acropolis.

Stars Arise - What a wonderful show! A mix of short comedies and tragedies, a very talented cast of actors, a little singing and dancing, and an outside stage with a glorious view of the Aparthenon. You will enjoy spending one hour, under the stars, becoming reacquainted with tales of old, while seeing new theatre stars arise.

Incredible performances bringing theatre and myths back to life in the city where they were born. - A fabulous fun night - great performances we were particular impressed by the Plutus play at the end and of course Medea’s monologue which was a highlight!

So much fun! - I wasn’t sure about this production and bought tickets as “something to do for the evening.” I was so pleasantly surprised. The actors were enthusiastic and did a marvelous job. Go see it!

Enjoyed it! - First of all, the stage is in a beautiful location, on an outdoor rooftop. At the bottom of Acropolis, so with a beautiful view you can enjoy the beautiful performance full of humor and tragedy. Very good actors, we really enjoyed it. You get a bottle of water or a cup of wine for free, and blankets on the chilly days. Enjoy!

Gorgeous outdoor theatre setting - Quirky amateur theatre performance (on) old rooftop location with the most amazing lighting of the Acropolis as a backdrop. Well worth the experience. Wine, water and blankets a nice extra touch.
