A MUST see show in Athens! - We truly enjoyed this show on our last night in Athens. Powerful performance with overflowing passion and energy in a beautiful setting of night lit acropolis in the background! These actors are beyond impressive! Our 10 year old also enjoyed it, laughing and giggling non stop. Thank you!

Best thing to do in Athens at night. It’s a must - The best experience in Athens. I completely recommend it. Next time we will be in Athens, this theater is a “must do” thing number one. The actors have so much passion in what they do that they made us live with them the experience of Ancient Greece. Instead of a curtain or props, the play had the acropolis in the back with the most beautiful sunset. The story, even though it was an adaptation of the real history, flew perfectly well, and in no time it seemed, it was over, leaving us a warm sensation in our hearts after almost 2 hours of performance. Thank you guys, we felt happy, sad, we enjoyed all the funny scenes, and we loved everything you did. Keep up the amazing job! Your audience loves you all

Absolute Must-Do! - This show is absolutely incredible. The stunning setting under the lights of the Acropolis are worth the ticket price before the show even started. The show transported me back 2500 years, with references to classics by Aristophanes, Euripides, Homer, just to name a few. It was very funny, exciting, and educational. Everything I wanted from a traditional Greek theatre experience in the city it was born!

Good play set in an amazing location - If it wasn't for the amazing setting, this maybe wouldn't have been a production I sought out. But I'm glad I went. The play was entertaining for my family (including a 15 year old). It was essentially snippets of the most famous Greek plays, although the narrators gave you enough context to understand the plot. The actors were very talented and the production made some clever choices. My favorite part was how they drove home the drama in Antigone - it was very eerie. Also, I loved the masks! The star of the show, however, was the scenery. Whomever decided to get a rooftop bar in Monastiraki, within full view of the Acropolis, was a genius. When the play starts off, the Parthenon is softly lit; it brings a whole new level to the plays.
