LOVED every minute of this outdoor theater experience! - One of the best memories of Athens - definitely recommend! But! Got NASTY flu after attending the night performance in May!! of all months! Weather seemed nice, but it got fresh during the evening, so, bring something warm with you, since it's open air. FANTASTIC actors, great setting and beautiful location. All 30 of us present seemed to enjoy our evening of famous Greek plays, and we are not even that much into theater or ancient Greek plays! :) It was nice that we also got some complementary water bottles.

Just the thing to round off our trip to Athens! - This is a must-see performance. The theater was right under the Parthenon…easy to find and in a lively neighborhood with plenty of dining options. My family and I really enjoyed it. You don’t need to be a Greek mythology buff to get the plots…it’s laid out as the performance rolls on…the actors were energetic, super talented….and the drama was super fun, educational, motivational and really entertaining.

Must do in Athens! - Amazing show with an incredible view of the acropolis at night! If you want to be immersed in the time of traditional Greek life of gods and legends, this is the show for you. With some unexpected surprises along the way, this show had me laughing and on the edge of my seat the whole time!

If you want to go to a... - If you want to go to a broadway show, pay $500. This is low budget as the price reflects, but it’s a good value.

Outside performance - This play is a satire. We were not expecting that. The owner of the venue was so welcoming and held the show until everyone of our party had arrived. If you enjoy this type of performance, you will give it a 5. We misunderstood . We thought this performance was going to be a dance performance.

Mediocre - Very mediocre. Only 4 male characters enacting for all plays, and acting as women too. The setting is superb with the Acropolis in the back ground. Wish the play was more engaging.
