The National Theatre of Northern Greece is one of the country’s largest theatre institutions. With its five indoor and two outdoor stages, plus the appearances it makes on tour and at festivals both in Greece and internationally, it has been a driving force on the cultural scene since 1961.

The NTNG is a private legal non-profit entity and is governed by a seven-member Board of Directors along with the Artistic Director. It is supervised and funded by the Hellenic Ministry of Culture and Sport.

As a public theatre which repays citizens for the funding it receives through the art, education and entertainment it provides, and which seeks to remain open and accessible to society at large, the National Theatre of Northern Greece has forged a strategy which revolves around the following axes:

•   a wide-ranging repertory
•    high-quality productions for children and young people
•    a focus on theatre education and educational activities
•    strong ties and partnerships with cultural institutions, municipal authorities, bodies and social institutions
•    an emphasis on social policy
•    social activities which raise public awareness
•    low ticket prices with a wide range of concessions
•    a powerful international presence.
