Theatre of Dionysus for a showing of Oedipus the King and The Frogs, 430 BC
- Still in Greece, but over a hundred years earlier! We’ll attend a festival at the Theatre of Dionysus. While at this remarkable event we’ll witness a number of great plays, but the two that we might still see performed in the present are Oedipus the King and The Frogs. Remember to look for the six elements of drama Aristotle shared with us!
