The theatre showcases contemporary performances of both Mime and Shadow Puppet Theatre over two separate auditoriums. Whilst the requirements for shadow puppet theatre are strictly controlled due to the lighting. The auditorium for the mime theatre is a lot more playful due to the physical nature of the performances. Scenery is moved into the auditorium on tracks and acrobats descend from the roof, this is all played out in front of the historic skyline of Istanbul.
