'Memnon'

Experiencing classical theater in the outdoor, almost mystical setting of the Getty Villa’s amphitheater will transport you to ancient Greece in an instant. Pair that with a show brought to the best coast by Classical Theatre of Harlem, a company that focuses on telling classics with a lens on the African diaspora, and you have the makings of a magical night. Memnon tells the overlooked but epic story of an Ethiopian king who sets out for Troy. Order your food ahead and enjoy the closest we can get to time travel.
