Uue Teatri kohvik

Asume Tartu Uues Teatris, fuajees, siiretega väiksesse saali, kapi- ja konteinerkohvikusse ja kõikjale, kus midagi toimub. Oleme avatud kui teatrimajas on etendus, kontsert või mõni muu sündmus. Juhtub, et niisamagi, kui tuleb tuju. Teeme teatriga kaasa ka majast väljas toimuvad hullused.

Laudade broneerimiseks, oma sündmuse toitlustamiseks või muude ideede arutamiseks võta ühendust:
