Theater

• Greek amphitheaters are still highly suitable venues in which to stage theatrical productions. The Greeks had a passion for theater which was well reflected in their classic stage designs, which allowed hundreds of spectators to watch plays. Modern day drama groups, both amateur and professional, can use Greek amphitheaters, which remain in decent condition to stage performances. Many groups with access to an amphitheatre use the space to stage works by ancient Greek playwrights, such as Euripides and Aristophanes, as well as more recent works. An example venue would be the Neapolis Archaeological Park in Italy.
  
  

Musical Concerts

• As well as staging plays, Greek amphitheaters can also be used to host performances of different kinds. With the excellent acoustics and ample performance space such theaters provide, musicians such as pop singers or orchestras can offer their fans not only an entertaining performance but one which boasts an intriguing location and in the cases of some amphitheaters, outstanding views over the surrounding area, too.
  
  

Educational

• Greek amphitheaters make highly suitable choices for educational field trips. A range of student groups will find a visit to a Greek amphitheater interesting. For example, college-level students researching ancient Greek theater will appreciate seeing the stage for these performances for themselves, while young pupils at schools will benefit from the insight such theaters give into ancient Greek culture. Some Greek amphitheater sites encourage educational visits by running seminars and acting courses on-site, as well as workshops in ancient Greek costume and mask creation. At some amphitheaters, students may get a chance to act on stage themselves.
  
  

Environment for Scientific Study

• Beyond learning about ancient Greek culture, researchers and professionals may find Greek amphitheaters interesting for more scientific reasons. For example, researchers have looked at how acoustic forces act in Greek amphitheaters, creating a nonstatic environment which includes both performers and audience, as reported by the Transform Mag website. Experts have also studied how the traditional model of the Greek amphitheater acted as an advanced acoustic filter, allowing even faraway audiences to hear what was being said on stage. Greek amphitheaters may yet hold more opportunities for such projects.
