Introduction &
Mission Statement

Teatru Manoel Learning & Participation Programme: TOI TOI is the wing of the national theatre dedicated to introducing young audiences to the performing arts, whilst developing, nurturing and supporting artistic talent with in-house and outreach projects for all ages. While the much-loved TOI TOI programme is well-known for producing quality theatre for young children, we are at the forefront of producing multigenerational, inclusive projects, as part of our commitment to educate and entertain in a fun and accessible way. 

Our long-term goal is to sustain work in communities through the discipline of live and filmed performing arts, acting as a bridge bringing people together, facilitating conversations, and acting as a vital tool for expression.

Multi-Award Nominated TOI TOI has fast become the home of opportunity for many locally-based artists – amateur and professional alike. It is, an imperative mission of the programme to assist aspiring artists by providing professional guidance, artistic development and performance opportunities in our Studio Theatre and other partner venues.

Teatru Manoel Learning & Participation Programme explores culturally relevant and educationally enriching subject matter through classical, folk, and jazz music, an array of dance genres, creative plays and musical theatre. The artistic output continues to grow through commissioned work by expert artists producing engaging performances that are intended to make the audience reflect, question and wonder. That’s why we like to call it thought-provoking theatre!
