Cinema and Theatre
Greek cinemas show a large number of American and British movies, always in the original soundtrack with Greek subtitles, though fly-posters tend to be Greek-only. Indoor screenings are highly affordable, currently ?5-7 depending on location and plushness of facilities; they shut from mid-May to late September unless they have air conditioning or a roll-back roof. Accordingly in summer vast numbers of outdoor cinemas operate; an outdoor movie (marginally cheaper) is worth catching at least once for the experience alone, though it's best to opt for the early screening (about 9pm) since the sound on the 11pm show gets turned down or even off to avoid complaints of noise from adjacent residences. Theatre gets suspended during the summer months but from late September to May there's a lot of activity; Athens alone has scores of theatres, with playbills ranging from the classics to satirical revues (all in Greek).
