AUTHOR’S SUGGESTIONS IN SICILY – In ancient Greek amphitheater in Taormina and Tindari, to listen to the distant Mediterranean suggestions

Everyone loves to travel, but not everyone loves to travel the same way. All you have to do is have the time in your life. Meeting Benches. The way to make the world a better place is easy. Choose a bench, where you can publish what you have painted or written, a review of a book that you’ve read, or the story of a journey that you have made. Past and Present are here and now. Our proposal call any web-traveler to sit into Meeting Benches info@meetingbenches.com to share emotions, observing new creative horizons.

More than 2,500 years ago, they were built by Greek architects, in front of the sea, over the hills that preserve the infinite sweetness. Texts timeless – that retain the charm of Oedipus and Prometheus, Iliad and Agamemnon – in the same charming atmosphere of ancient theaters in the shape of a shell. Those masterpieces were built with stone, on scenic hills of Sicily. From the second half of the twentieth century, many of those theaters were reopened to the public. They still have excellent acoustics, and all of them welcome the tale of the great human themes: love, betrayal and justice. http://pti.regione.sicilia.it/portal/page/portal/SIT_PORTALE/SIT_EnglishVersion

Two thousand years ago, Tindari was a rich city, and archaeological excavations have brought to light even a special theater. Sitting on those steps, along with other 3 thousand spectators, in front of a panorama you will not forget, the Tindari theater gives you a landscape that embraces the Tyrrhenian Sea, with views of the Aeolian islands, the Sicilian coast and on the Calabrian. In that theater, until August 27, you can attend numerous representations (Miles Gloriosus Plautus, Sophocles’ Oedipus the King, the Iliad and The Trojan Women Seneca). On August 13, you will need to be up early, at 5 am, why do you expect the Dawn of Tindari and the painter Antonello da Messina. http://www.sicilia-turismo.com/tindari/

The greek theater of Taormina with the Etna volcano in the background, each summer are waiting for operas and ballets, musicals, concerts and film screenings. Until August 24, you can choose the charm of the musical West Side Story, or the rock and jazz concerts Skunk Anansie, but the scenic beauty and architectural will always be next to you, any type of show you decide to donate your travel memories. In 1787, Wolfgang Goethe wrote that did not exist in the world a more beautiful view of what you could see from the steps of the theater. http://www.taormina.it/
