Ceres, the Roman goddess of agriculture and fertility, has presided over the Roman Theater of Mérida since its excavation and subsequent reconstruction at the beginning of the 20th century. But it is known that she originally occupied a privileged place on the stage front along with other sculptures. More than 2,000 years later, the divinity observes every summer night the thousands of spectators who attend the International Classical Theater Festival of Mérida and those who give life to works by Plautus, Aristophanes, Homer, Euripides… as if for her the time would have stopped.
