Theatres in Estonia
The
Vanemuine has its own drama company and is therefore the largest of Estonian theatres.
Theatres in small cities cannot be merely regarded as employers located far from centres and therefore the more
valuable. The whole local cultural life is centred around them.
Other famous theatres are Estonian Drama Theatre, Estonian National Puppet Theatre, Kuressaare City Theatre,
Old Baskin's Theatre, Rakvere Theatre, SalongTheatre, Tallinn City Theatre, Theatre ,,Varius", Theatre NO99,
Ugala Theatre, VAT Theatre and Von Krahl Theatre.
Also there are three schools in Estonia which provide higher education in drama. The oldest and most academic
of them is the Higher School of Drama at the Estonian Academy of Music. The Viljandi Cultural College and the
private school 'Theatrum' at the Estonian Institute of Humanities.
Theatres provide work for about 2000 persons all over Estonia.
