Theatres

Miksteater is a touring theatre founded in 2007 that is mostly performing for young audiences in Estonia and abroad. The name of the theatre is a word play
that sheds light on the two theatre’s main principles. Firstly, "miks" stands for "why" in Estonian, reflecting the theatre’s quest to always keep on questioning the purposes
of theatre making. For Miksteater this is a way to stay alert and mindful and pose a lot of questions with their productions. Giving answers is not their aim; the aim is rather to make the audience seek them by themselves. Secondly, "miks" also stands for "mix", reflecting Miksteater’s wish to mix various forms of theatre and art together for a novel theatrical language.
