Ukrainian theatre ACTIO in Tallinn for the first time: two Christmas performances at the House of the Blackheads on 21 December

The Estonian tour of the Kyiv-based theatre ACTIO, announced earlier by the Association of Ukrainian Organisations in Estonia, now has a date and a venue. On Monday, 21 December 2026, the theatre will give two performances at the House of the Blackheads (Mustpeade maja, Pikk 26) in Tallinn Old Town.

ACTIO tours Europe in cooperation with the Les Kurbas National Centre for Theatre Arts. The decision to come to Tallinn followed a survey in which Ukrainians in Estonia strongly supported the idea.

18:00 — “A Winter Tale”. An interactive performance for children aged 4–13: the fairy-tale forest is preparing for St Nicholas, but an elf accidentally releases villains from a magic book who steal the presents. Children become part of the story and help save the holiday. Duration 45 minutes, doors open at 17:30. Tickets: fienta.com.

20:30 — “Evenings on a Farm near Dikanka”. A comedy for adults based on Mykola Gogol's stories: Oksana, the blacksmith Vakula, the magic boots and evil spirits on Christmas night. Duration 60 minutes, doors open at 20:00. Tickets: fienta.com.

A small Christmas fair with handmade items by Ukrainian craftswomen and festive treats will be held before the performances. The tour has a charitable purpose: proceeds will go towards charging stations and vehicles for Ukrainian defenders. Seating is limited.
