What People Say
-
This was one of my son’s first outdoor theatre experiences. He was only 4 years old back then and he really enjoyed the show. The actors interacted with the audience, providing an immersive and unique experience. Even I learned things about Greek Mythology that I was not aware of! Six months after the show, my son and I still talk about it and he keeps showing off the key he was given to all his friends. Overall, a great experience that we would love to repeat. Thanks a million AOD. You rock!
