The Roman Theatre at Bosra is a large Roman theatre in Bosra, in the district of Daraa in south-western Syria [1]. The theatre was originally built outside the walls of the town, but was later completely enclosed by an Ayyubid fortress [1]. The theatre is 102 metres across and has seating for about 17,000 people; it is thus among the largest of the Ancient Roman civilisation [1].
