  • Internationalization of Estonian Theatre. The Agency promotes the arrival of Estonian theatre on foreign stages by translating and distributing Estonian playwriting, organizing a performing arts showcase and introducing Estonian theatre abroad.

The Estonian Theatre Agency is a private foundation that was founded in 2007 by the Estonian Theatre Union and the Estonian Association of Performing Arts Institutions.

The Estonian Theatre Agency was born as a result of merging two previously operating organizations – private limited company Estonian Drama Agency (founded in 1994, its partners were Estonian state and Tallinn city government) and private limited company Theatre Association Information Center (founded in 2001 by the Estonian Theatre Union), to consolidate the support services in the field of performing arts into one organization and thus strengthen the quality of services already provided and to expand their scope.

The Estonian Theatre Agency took over the rights and duties of both institutions and considers its period of operation since the establishment of the Drama Agency in 1994.
