Vilnius Theatre Lele

About

The Theatre “Lele” is settled in the former house of Duke Oginsky in the Old Town of Vilnius. In 1977 the house was restored, and the former Vilnius Puppet Theatre moved in under its new name “Lele”. The Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Lithuania is the founder and the sponsor of the theatre. “Lele” performances have been awarded at many international puppet theatre festivals. Although most tours are held in Lithuania, the theatre has also toured a number of foreign countries. The team of Vilnius Theatre “Lele” does their best to keep the theatre open to not only the best traditions of children’s puppet theatre but also valuable trends of the modern theatre. Nevertheless, the primary aim is to retain the interest and the attention of both the youngest audience and the adults.
