Description

The Birth of Democracy

 

Democracy first evolved 2,500 years ago in the city state of Athens. When in 404BC Hippias, the worst possible type of tyrant, did something extraordinary, which was turned by Cleisthenes and later Ephialtes and Pericles into the first democratic state.

Athens, in 50 minutes, tells the remarkable story of how Athenian Democracy evolved.

This musical is enjoyable way to introduce your children to citizenship and why it is so important to vote.

On Wednesday we put on our musical, titled “Athens – The birth of Democracy”.
It was a very successful show. The audience was thrilled, and most importantly
the children who participated were very happy.
