I am so fascinated by Ancient Greek history and from what I understand, some of the ancient theaters are still intact and performances are being held there. I've been research Epidavros and noticed that they hold performances there in the summer. Has anyone been? What was it like?

I've seen footage online of people marveling at the amazing acoustics, and I want to experience this for myself.

Yes they do have plays every summer, I believe. Watch for the schedule for 2023 - I don't think it's been released yet. The theater has its own website, you can search for it. I don't know off the top of my head what the url is.

Thank you so much! I will watch out for the schedule.

I haven't been to Epidavros yet, but I have seen performances at other ancient Greek theaters. It's an incredible experience - you feel like you're a part of history when you're there. The acoustics are indeed amazing, and you can hear every single word was spoken, no matter where you are in the theater. It's really a unique experience to hear the ancient language being spoken so clearly in the same place where it was spoken thousands of years ago. The atmosphere is also very special - the natural beauty of the surrounding area combined with the spectacular architecture of the theater itself makes for a truly magical experience.
 

Has anyone here seen a performance n Epidavros?
