The broadcast and theatrical play cycle "Teātris.zip" offers a unique benefit to the Latvian public, i.e. television viewers of various generations and audiences of the future – fully-fledged transmissions of the best and viewers’ favourite theatrical plays on LTV, as well as the compilation of an archive of recordings of the very best contemporary theatrical productions for broadcasting in the future.

"Teātris.zip" was launched in the autumn of 2012 (opening press conference [2]). 

In the three seasons of "Teātris.zip", Latvian audiences have had the opportunity to enjoy recordings and live broadcasts of 90 of the best Latvian theatrical productions from various eras (60 evening performances together with the "Teātris.zip" programme presented by Ojārs Rubenis and 30 daytime performances). Parallel to this, LTV has produced recordings of 57 of the best plays from theatres in Riga and the regions. These are plays that have been included in Latvia’s cultural canon, as well as productions considered to be classics of their respective eras.
