Ljubljana Puppet Theatre

Šentjakobsko gledališče (St. James's Theatre) at Krekov Square houses the Ljubljana Puppet Theatre.

The Ljubljana Puppet Theatre (Slovenian: Lutkovno gledališče Ljubljana) was founded in 1948, originally as the City Puppet Theatre, and remains the premier Slovenian theatre for puppetry.[1] It is located in Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia. It had its opening premiere on October 10 as part of the Ljubljana Festival. The first artistic director was Jože Pengov, a Slovenian director, playwright, actor, writer, translator, publicist, and founder of the modern craft of Slovenian puppet theater.[2][3] Today, the Theatre hosts and participates in numerous European and Slovenian festivals.[4]

The theatre stages puppetry shows but also live-action dramas, musicals, and other performance entertainments.[5]

The theatre has four stages accommodating between 60 and 210 seats: St Jacob's Stage, The Main Stage, Small Stage, and Stage Under the Stars located on the top floor with a glass roof up to the night skies.

The theatre also contains a small Museum of Puppetry which opened in 2015.[6]
