This Greek Theatre, recently excavated near Siracuse, is over 2500 years old. It takes your breath away to imagine the audiences, famous, infamous and possibly long since forgotten, who sat to enjoy tragedies and comedies in Greek style.

This theatre was carved from a single stone.

In 2010, Andreas Bottecelli used this venue for this only European concert stop.  15,000 people enjoyed that historical concert.

To our delight, in a nearby cave with spectacular aucostics, Fr. Tony and a fellow traveler, Richard awed this audience of travelers with their version of Panis Angelicus.
