The word “theatre” derives from the Greek “theatron”, which means “a place of seeing.” Large semi – circular, open air structures with their excellent acoustics are visible today at many archaeological sites. An excellent paradigm is the theatre of Delphi, located in the north – west corner of the sanctuary of Pythian Apollo.

It is the largest building of the archaeological site, initially built by Parnassus limestone. Constructed on 4th c. B.C. and restored, according to inscriptions, on 160/159 B.C., it was funded by Eumenes II, king of Pergamon. Later on, in 67 B.C a platform with relief sculptures depicting scenes from the life of Hercules, was added. The stage, of which only the foundations remain, was probably divided into the proscenium and the stage proper. The theatre had a total capacity of 4,200-4,500 spectators placed on 35 rows of seats.
