Kekec Season Programme

The Kekec season programme is a cycle of theatre plays for children between three and eight years of age.

Every season, we invite the best theatre houses in Slovenia to cooperate with their best plays exclusively for children. Aside from aiming to provide children with high-quality theatre productions and grow their love for the art of theatre, the Kekec season programme naturally pursues educational objectives as well. Through the action happening on stage, to which children dedicate their full attention and often, after some encouragement from the actors, actively participate in as well, we show them the world in an unforced way that is enriched with culture. They learn that the world is not all fun and games or fair for everyone equally. Topics dealt with in the plays provide them with lessons about both good and evil, but they mostly learn about values, the kindness of man, and about courage that, when coupled with honesty and perseverance, can overcome any evil.

After the show children are welcome to attend creative follow-up workshops where they can relive the play, make sense of it, and further upgrade their experience. This is our way to develop the creativity of our youngest visitors.

All shows in the Kekec season programme are in Slovene.
