Dionysia

A Festival of Short Plays Second Edition!

Directed by Alex Bickerstaff, Jordan Formichelli, and Christopher Savage

After last year's success, Dionysia returns!

The Dionysia was a large festival in ancient Athens in honor of the god Dionysus, the central events of which were the theatrical performances of dramatic tragedies and - later on - comedies. It was the second-most important festival in Greece.
