A location for festival performances in the Agora of Athens, known solely from literary sources and perhaps also called "the grandstands" (ta ikria). Performances were transferred to the Theater of Dionysos on the south slope of the Acropolis in the 490s BC, but the name remained in use for a location in the Agora.
