The show is great fun! All of the actors put on a super performance. There was a short talk given at the beginning of the performance explaining the history of the Ancient Greek use of masks in theatre, which was a great way to begin the show. The show itself was very entertaining with a good mix of comedy and tragedy, traditional and modern. The theatre itself has a backdrop of the sunset, the moon and the Acropolis - You couldn't wish for a better setting. There was also complimentary water and wine on arrival and the staff and performers were very welcoming and friendly. I'm so pleased we booked to see this show as it's been one of the highlights of our visit to Athens.
Something unique to do in Athens
