I lost 40€ in Athens, and it was truly a "Greek" tragedy.

My friend and I found out from a travel guide that a theater festival was happening in Athens. Imagine how amazing it would be to watch a play in Greece, where the Greek tragedies originated! We quickly searched for the play scheduled for that night and booked our tickets online.

After enjoying a leisurely dinner, we arrived at the 'National Theatre' mentioned in the guidebook, 40 minutes before the performance. But as we walked to the entrance, something felt weird. The place was empty! Isn't it supposed to be busy before a play? We walked around the theater and asked a staff member for help.

After asking, we found out the play was being held at another 'National Theatre' located two hours away from the city center! In our surprise, we realized that we were the main characters in this tragedy.
