On Wednesday, 22 October, at 18:00, the Small Hall of Liepāja Theatre in the Great Amber Concert Hall will open its doors to an unusual theatrical experience. The Liepāja 2027 Foundation invites audiences to the “Bezgalīgais ritums” (Endless Course), a sensory performance directed by Liena Šmukste.
One of the programme’s key goals is to encourage the creation of high-quality, imaginative projects that may later be submitted to Liepāja 2027 competitions or secure support from other funding streams. Participation is free of charge. Applications are open until 8 October 2025 via the online form.
