The places we'll go...
The White House
The Warner Theatre
This theater is located only a few blocks from the White House. There are performances of musicals, comedies, dramas, and many more. The Greeks were the first to perform musicals and plays. They started off as short plays to honor the god, Dionysus. Only men were allowed to act. The actors used masks to show their emotions and also to show whether they were a lady or a man. As you can see, the Warner Theatre also used the Greek's way of having the seats in a semicircle. The floor is also slanted towards the stage so it will be easier for everyone to see and hear the play.
The Lincoln Memorial
Greek columns have influenced many of the monuments in Washington DC
