Dario Franceschini, the Italian minister of culture, recently announced that a $22 million contract has been signed to install a new lightweight stage in the center of the Colosseum, according to the Associated Press.
The new stage will give visitors the view the gladiators had back in the day — the difference being this platform will be much more high-tech than the original one.
