The theatre is still developing, it has many fairy tale performances, but it also constantly writes new things itself: It has children's drama groups, youth groups, children's circuses that put on performances, it has adults who play for children, children and adults who play together, it has stationary performances and to a certain extent still tries to be outreaching. Since 1980, the theatre has had premises in the Theatre House, Borgergade 25.
