Theatres

Founded in 1920, Ugala Theatre is one of Estonia's oldest professional drama theatres. In 1981, the theatre received a new, large and modern building that was one of the most advanced ones in the Baltic countries at the time. In 2017, the fully renovated historical theatre building was opened, where in addition to a 540-seat large hall, performances are given in a contemporary black box small hall.

The Ugala offers a varied repertoire from children's stories and musical plays to world classics and contemporary world dramaturgy. Estonian originals also have their place in the programme.

The troupe consists of 26 actors and actresses. Since 2023 the artistic director is Liis Aedmaa and since 2019 is the managing director Garmen Tabor.
