The Greco-Roman theatre of Sikyon, built between 303 and 251 BC and altered at least twice by the Romans, Sikyon, Greece

            The Hellenistic theatre at Sikyon (modern name Vassiliko. Greece) was built between 303 and 251 BC and was altered at least twice by the Romans; the scene building was expanded in the 1st century and the stage was altered in the late Roman period (Sears 405). With a seating area estimated at 122 meters wide and 58 meters deep, it is one of the larger theatres in the Peloponnesus. The present day ruins at Sicyon are but a faint reminder of the Romanized theatre Pausinias visited in the second century CE. "On the stage of the theater built under the citadel is a statue of a man with a shield, who they say is Aratus, the son of Cleinias. After the theater is a temple of Dionysus" (Pausanias 2.7.5).
