Lithuanian Myths & Legends: an educational theatrical programme for schools
A theatrical educational programme that turns Lithuanian mythology into a living stage experience. Pupils don't just read the legends – they see how storytelling, original music and stage atmosphere bring Lithuania's cultural heritage to life. We stage the programme in schools, and in Lithuania we are preparing to offer it through the Kultūros pasas (Culture Passport) scheme.
Lithuanian Myths & Legends is an educational programme for schools that lifts mythology off the textbook page and onto the stage. Instead of dry facts, pupils follow one continuous story: the legends of the Vilnius Basilisk, the Giants of Kupiškis and Biržai Castle come alive through live narration, original music and a full stage atmosphere. This theatrical format naturally supports lessons in Lithuanian language and literature, history and ethnic culture – folklore, legends and heritage – and helps pupils understand where the images of Lithuanian identity come from. We adapt the programme to different age groups and to the school's own space, and for schools in Lithuania we are preparing to deliver it via the state Kultūros pasas (Culture Passport).
- The curriculum comes alive: mythology is delivered through live storytelling, so legends stay with pupils far longer than a page in a textbook.
- Linked to the curriculum: the theme supports lessons in Lithuanian language and literature, history and ethnic culture – folklore, legends and heritage.
- A complete theatrical format: narration, original music, stage costumes and atmosphere in one performance, with minimal technical demands on the school.
- Adapted to your pupils: we tune the length and language to the age group and to your space – assembly hall, culture centre or school stage.
- Culture Passport: we can deliver it as a school programme and are preparing to offer it via Lithuania's Kultūros pasas scheme (ask us about current status).
