Kaunas State Drama Theatre, Theatre company in Kaunas, Lithuania
The National Kaunas Drama Theatre operates across four distinct stages, presenting classical and contemporary works throughout its September to June season each year.
Founded in 1920 as Lithuania's first professional theatre, the company initially performed at what later became the Kaunas State Musical Theatre building.
The theatre company presents approximately 350 performances annually, featuring both international classics and Lithuanian plays that reflect national identity.
The theatre building, located at Laisvės alėja 71, contains multiple performance spaces including the Main Stage, Small Stage, Ruta's Hall, and Long Hall.
The theatre structure, originally built in 1928 as the Metropolitan cinema, maintains its Art Deco architectural elements despite 1950s renovations.
