Estonia’s oldest theatre, Vanemuine, is in many ways<br />
connected to the number three. First of all, Vanemuine<br />
uses three buildings. The Big House with its 700-seat<br />
hall is on top of the hill in the city centre. A bit off centre,<br />
in the quiet air of the park, is an architecturally outst<strong>and</strong>ing<br />
Small House with its more than 400-seat hall.<br />
On the bank of the River Emajõgi is the black-box type<br />
Harbour Theatre with 300 seats. In addition to three<br />
buildings, Vanemuine also has three branches: the<br />
literary, musical <strong>and</strong> dance theatre. The repertoire includes<br />
dramas, comedies, tragedies, operas, operettas,<br />
musicals, classical ballet plays <strong>and</strong> modern dance plays.<br />
The long history of Estonia’s only three-genre theatre<br />
dates back to 1870. However, Vanemuine as Estonia’s<br />
oldest professional theatre dates back to 1906.<br />
