Kanuti Gildi SAAL is a performing arts centre that opened in 2001. SAAL was the first performing arts institution in Baltic states without a permanent company and thus dedicated to freelance artists.

Kanuti Gildi SAAL is located in the heart of Tallinn’s old town, offering sharp-minded art inside the medieval town walls. The very first known professional theatre show in Estonia took place in the same building - originally the Saint Canute Guild House - as early as in 1633. We operate in a house with hundreds of years of history, meanwhile staying acutely connected to the present times and standing always one foot in the future.
