The Theater of Delphi will be a 35 row, arena shaped theater able to seat up to 5000 people. There will be different sections for first class and general admission.

Planned to be built in Delphi, Greece just 180 kilometers from Athens, Greece it is the perfect location to hold suck events. Plus there is a beautiful view of the Temple of Apollo, and Olive tree Valley. Greek Myths believe that the theater will be built in "the center of the world" because of the story that greek god Zeus let two birds fly in opposite directions and this site is the spot where the two birds crossed paths.
The Pantheon
The pantheon will be built in the middle of the town of Rome, Italy. The structure will stand on a 1.3 meter high base, which will extend 7 meters in front of the colonnade. The steps made from Numidian yellow marble will extend to the outer ends of this base. The building is going to consist of two main parts - the porch, which looks very Greek in presentation because of its grand columns, and the circular building which is more Roman in style. The circular building is planned to be built with brick and concrete but can later be faced with white marble to resemble the porch in appearance. The dome of the pantheon will be concrete with the outer surface covered in sheets of bronze. The Pantheon's interior will be deliberately built to outshine the exterior. The circular part / rotunda will be entranced by two bronze doors measuring 12 x 7.5 meters in diameter. The rotunda measures 43.2 meters in diameter and at the very top of the dome is an opening to the sky resembling a skylight which is 8.8 m in diameter. The pantheon will be dedicated to Marcus Agrippa and used as a temple or place of gathering.
Modern architecture from Rome
The column style that was used on the porch of the Pantheon is still in use today. this style of architecture is used on many houses in America. Using columns is great for the structure of the building. As well as being good for the structure it gives the building or house a strong elegant look. This style of architecture is used at the white house to this day and can be dated back to ancient Rome
Modern architecture from ancient Greece.
Of all the architectural designs used by ancient Greeks through history, three major systems are still used today and these include the Doric, Ionic and Corinthian styles, the column style from ancient Greece is still considered Doric style that is used on the acropolis, ionic style is the kind of columns with fancy art done at the bases like curls. Last is Corinthian which is more of a mimic to the ionic style just more modern and some examples of greek architecture in modern times or the white house with its columns and cottage houses also use the same column type style. The theater style that is found at the Theater of Delphi can be found today in many sports stadiums and concert arenas. Having the field, court, or stage in the middle and the the stands surrounding it is the style of architecture that allows what ever is going on to be the center of attention and is an example of greek architecture.
