Our theater

Theater as a little bit of magic

For Miss Lana, theatre has never been only a performance. It is a place where a child can meet courage, kindness, friendship, and wonder in a form they can see and feel. For more than 30 years, her work has brought fairy tales to life through actors, costumes, scenery, music, and the quiet magic of a shared story.

30+ years

Experience you can feel

Decades of bringing tales to life

More than thirty years of stage experience stand behind every show — a professional troupe whose craft turns a simple fairy tale into a performance children remember.

A real company behind Miss Lana

Not one entertainer, but a professional company — actors, writers and directors who build every show together.

    Actor

    An actor with 14 years in theatre, film and television, he began in amateur theatre in Ukraine before building an international career in China, where he worked alongside Jackie Chan, Wu Jing and other renowned actors. He has appeared in numerous films, TV series and commercials, including The Battle at Lake Changjin, one of the highest-grossing films in Chinese cinema history. He also represented Ukraine at the International Festival of Arts in Algeria in 2016. Now based in Los Angeles, he continues to perform on stage while pursuing his film and television career.

For more than 30 years, our troupe has made theater for children — a craft we built on the Ukrainian stage before bringing it home to families across Los Angeles. Those years of classical training are what you see in every show: real costumes, real characters, and stories told with heart.

The heart of what we do — friendship, teamwork and standing by your friends.

Helping one another

The lesson children take home — small acts of help that make everything better.
