Επίδαυρος”. A moment in my life that I will never, ever forget. On our honeymoon, we traveled from Athens to Tripoli to my cousin’s home, meeting them, for the very first time...my newly found family, who I never met before , displaying that “Big, Fat Greek Hospitality” that I knew quite well growing up back in Chicago on the South Side. After a wonderful late lunch, we left and, on our way back to Athens, I saw it!.... the Sign! ... “Επίδαυρος“ ( Epidaurus)..."ΤΟ ΜΕΓΑΛΟ ΙΕΡΟ ΘΕΑΤΡΟ...THE GREAT HOLY THEATRE" ! "The Gods Were Good To Me, for My childhood dream had come true”. I made a quick, illegal turn to access the road that led to the Theatre.....(”Δεν υπάρχει αστυνομία ....No Police!”...Ha HA!)....driving endlessly on a treacherous, Winding Road which seemed forever, indeed . The midday Sun was waning then when we arrived around 5 pm, and, to our shock, we saw there were no buses, no cars, no taxis, no tourist guides. NOTHING!......EMPTY ! It Was Closed !! Heartbreak!!! No !!....No Way !!. “I did not travel to this Mythical Wonder, winding around those stygian cliffs, only to be turned back” ( try doing that to a Hellene, BTW ). But!...Wait a minute...Ok......I had an idea, though...through a schemingly, clever Odyssean plan ...that of the use of Our timeless, secret weapon ... “ The Hellenic Art of BS !” Would it work, though, I wondered ? The gracious, old gentleman, with the keys to the entrance to the Theatre, at the bottom of that hill, listened quietly, intently and respectfully to my hopefully persuasive story....my sobbing narrative (after a minute of laborious persuasion...telling him that I was a “Hollywood Director and that my wife was the Leading Lady…. the Staring Actress” in a blockbuster movie that was being produced there shortly). Yes... my Hellenic Language failed me throughout. BUT ! ..even so, the great Aristophanes ( He!.. who capitalized on the Art of Persuasive Humor in our ageless Comedic Culture of Theatre) stood by me in spirit, proud of my speech at that very moment...why... I could hear his applause over the joyed roar of his ancient audience awaiting my entrance on stage...... intently ! “ΚΑΛΟ ΝΙΚΟΣ”…… Aristophanes said in his ancient, Attic Hellenic Language.... I know!.... I heard him say it”…... “αυτό είναι” Well now... chuckling with his twinkling eyes and with ageless Wisdom, the old caretaker caught my sincerity or, shall we say………..”My BS”, and immediately smiled ...then allowed us both to run up to see this world marvel without escort. "Έχετε μόνο 15 λεπτά! Θα έρθω να σε πάρω μετά από αυτό ..... Πήγαινε!" ( “you have 15 minutes ..after that I’ll come get you myself !!...GO! GO NOW... ON YOUR WAY!”) This man must be from Crete, I thought ! “ΙΣΧΥΡΟΣ”... STRONG & “ΣΚΛΗΡΟΣ”... TOUGH ! “Ένας Έλληνας γνωρίζει έναν Έλληνα, προφανώς!”....”A Hellene knows a Hellene.....profound!”..... apparently!. Well, we ran like Olympian Athletes up the hill ...to my “Dream Come True” since I was a child ! .....this wonder announced to me.....so magical...so welcoming. I suddenly turned my head to the right after someone softly tapped my shoulder it seemed ...who was it ? (Dionysus ) ? I was anointed by Apollo himself . There I was. finally there... stunned ...crying endless tears. We were all alone.... no one else.....just the flowered, Northern Winds whistling softly. Yes.. I was allowed by the Gods now...standing hearlded over the weathered, round center stone..... where once stood a gleaming bronze coin that Euripides once stood on in the center orchestra.... “Στεκόμουν μπρο....τά σε ένα μυθικό ελληνικό αυτί”… ( I was standing in front of an Ancient Mythical Ear ). Respectively, rubbing my hands with the fertile soil of my father’s land, I waived to my wife as she climbed to the very top. I said.... molon labe..........NO !.........NO !.........I screamed to my wife......again....this time correcting myself.... proudly and loudly shouting from my heart........... “MOLON !”…....... “LABE !” ... ...( “COME!”....”TAKE!” ) and she responded like a timeless "Kouroi" maiden with...Oh !.....that legendary, timeless smile...divine......her quintessential Hellenic "Contrapposto Pose"....PERFECT ! I knew then My Dream had come to fruition. I was on Olympus itself. As my wife and I traded places, she standing on the center stone down in the orchestra and me now standing at the top of the theatre, I was profoundly stunned by her voice..so clear...so robust...thus realizing what “Genius My Ancestors Gave To Humanity”. Epidauvros is marvel of acoustics ! The stone steps filter the background noise and create a phenomenon called ‘virtual pitch,’ which enhances the clarity and quality of sound. Additionally, the distance between the rows of seats diffuses the sound everywhere with the same intensity. Other factors include the sound bouncing back from the hard, compact surface of the orchestra and the theater stands, the good quality marble used, the quiet scenery and the constant breeze blowing from the orchestra to the viewers. Now...Let me tell you all what the sound is really like ...exactly. Take both hands and place them behind both ears, as the elderly do when listening. Then.... speak your thoughts.... clearly abound ! Hence....all will flavor the exact magical sound quality expounded over two and a half thousand years of “Hellenic Brilliance” ...... “The Immortality that is ...” MY ELLAS” ! .. “We Are The Alpha & Omega in All of History” ! ...."WE LIVE FOREVER"

No. It is possible to build larger theatres out of wood; the famous Globe Theatre in London was made out of wood, and so it burned. Probably wood theatres failed to withstand the elements, and eventually, new methods of stone refurbishment made a stone theatre cheaper than always replacing bits of rotten wood.
