Great one-man show. IMO it's best for ages 8-18. We brought a 6yo and 8yo. The 6yo had fun, but she was the youngest audience member that night and had a little trouble keeping up. Everyone left happy, though. The performer was engaging and thoughtful.

Really good fun if you get into it and enjoy the show. The actor is great and makes the experience really immersive, it’s clear he enjoys what he does and that makes it that much better. Thanks for giving me and my friend Jack a laugh.

This is a must do with friends and or family in Athens. My husband and I had the very best time.
The children in the audience, all loved the experience. No child too old to attend.
So much fun, laughs, intrigue and talent. It was one of our top experiences while we are in Athens.
Thank you💞💞💞

This was so fun for our family, 2 kids 7 & 12 years old. Our 12 yr old LOVED it. Hilarious fun. Engaging comedic theatre fun for all. Would definitely recommend for an alternative experience. It was nice and short so you can definitely fit it into your Athens experience! Go support these guys if you like a little murder mystery game with Ancient Greek history! Perfect pre dinner activity !

One star less due to picture suggesting more than one actor (despite we had one he was brilliant - Nirkhos… if we spell name right… did superb job).

We decided on a whim to go as a family of a 4, with a 3 year old and a 1.5 year old. To our surprise, We were the only group that had signed up and we basically had the entire event to ourselves.
The Actor was very passionate and brought the story to life, he even got our 3-year-old and our 1.5 year old involved. We had a great time, would have obviously been better if we didn't have the children so we could focus more on the storyline. But nonetheless, we had a great time. We learned some historic Greek things along the way!

Thank you for your words and for being a part of our journey—until next time, keep a piece of Greece in your heart!

Not only do you get a great view of city, but also a really fun time. The program incorporated historical info, into a fun play. We came not expecting anything and left laughing. I would def recommend, not that expensive, something to do in evening, and just fun to go with friends or family (or date;)

What a blast! My family of 5 (aged 13-53) enjoyed every moment of our talented host’s performance. We began by creating new names and playing a traditional Greek game. We then had time for a spectacular rooftop photo shoot with the Acropolis in the background. Once the “show” began, our protagonist demonstrated savvy improv skills while he easily bantered and joked with the audience. Our time together flew by, and within an hour, we had shared many laughs and were off to dinner! Strongly recommend - thank you, Yiannis!!!

What a great time! On top of a building with a view of the Acropolis. Hilarious actor with great audience interaction. Good for all ages. We went at 7 pm and it was just over an hour and a half. Time for late dinner or dessert afterwards. Great value. Great fun!

This was a really fun thing to do! My family and I (girls ages 12 and 16) had a great time learning about Ancient Greece in this unique way. The enthusiasm of the actor was contagious and led to a memorable and funny night. The best part of the experience was the breathtaking view. Being able to see the Acropolis from a roof top at sunset was truly remarkable. This is a fun way to spend an evening!

We are not real social people but the Murder Mystery was alot of fun, along with great rooftop views of the city and the Acropolis. Our party of 4 adults did the Murder mystery one night and the Ancient open-air Greek Theater by the same company the previous night and both were great! This activity is family friendly and the actor intereacted well with the child that particpated. These 2 activities really made our trip to Athens memorable. HIghly recommend!!
