English: One of pictures taken of - mainly – the decoration of the podium. I think the pictures, when compared, will turn out to show all of this decoration, sometimes repeatedly. Taken during several visits to the theatre, in different times of the years and with possibly differences due to restorations. The stage of this theatre consisted of a building called skene and a podium (proskeon) where the spectacles were organized. The skene building, 63 meters (206 feet) long, had three stories that formed an ornamental façade, decorated with columns, niches, statues and reliefs. Little of that remains. There were nine interconnected rooms on the lowest level of skene. Traces of the stairs leading to the upper floors have been discovered in two of them. Also, three corridors provided entrance to the skene building directly from the agora, which is situated next to the theatre. The actors could get to the podium through five gates. That podium was 6 meters (20 feet) wide and it was 3 meters (10 feet) above the semi-circular orchestra, located between the stage and the audience. The base of the podium, visible above the orchestra, was decorated with reliefs depicting various scenes from Greek mythology. Unfortunately, the state of the reliefs preservation is very poor.
