This well-preserved Greek theater (5th-centry B.C.) is still used for performances of classical works.
Each summer a series of plays, called 'Cycle of Classical Plays' are held inside the wonderful Greek Theatre of Siracusa.
The National Institute for Ancient Drama are responsible for the content and choice of drama.
