This article claims that staging quality plays for very young audiences primarily depends on how much respect politicians, parents, adults, and artists have for children as individuals as well as on how they perceive child and childhood. The perception of a child in the society, cultural policies affecting and directed towards children, as well as how much a society cares for children have both negative and positive effects on the quality of theatre for very young audiences. In addition to studying the influence which cultural values have on the staging of quality theatre, this thesis argues that theatre employees should also be required to improve their artistic skills in the light of various research and academic studies. In order to ensure the creation of truly quality theatre for very young audiences, it should be believed that there is no difference between the theatre for adults and the theatre for children on the point of quality. The research indicates that the quality of theatre is same for all audiences in different ages.
