Lithuanian National Drama Theatre

Lithuanian National Drama Theatre (Lithuanian: Lietuvos nacionalinis dramos teatras), located on Gediminas Avenue in Vilnius, is one of Lithuania's most prominent publicly funded performing arts venues and cultural institutions.[1] Founded as a Vilnius State Theatre in 1940, it became Lithuanian National Drama Theatre in 1998.[1] The theatre's façade featuring the Feast of Muses (Lithuanian: Mūzų šventė) sculpture by Stanislovas Kuzma has become a landmark of Vilnius city.[2]
