Great visual, but I wonder how well one could really hear what was said in those large outdoor theaters?

We have been to a lot of these in different countries. If you stand in the right place and whisper the sound carries everywhere. I do have a photo of how the rock is cut for the seats to help resonate the sound. it also depends on the shape of the arc.
