In its beginnings, Nebo Puppet Theatre mainly staged puppet performances for adults. Presently, the theatre focuses on puppet performances for children and experimental theatre events for adults. Thus far, Nebo has staged several successful plays. Especially popular was the production called The Story About France [Zgodba o Francetu] (2003), directed by comic author Andrej Štular, which dealt with the manifold existential problems of the prominent Slovene romantic poet France Prešeren and his relation toward the world, society, life, and death. Nebo Puppet Theatre's more recent performances, such as Folk Tales [Take ljudske] (2006), which was nominated for an Award for Best Performance at the Adelaide Fringe Festival in Australia; Pinocchio [Ostržek] (2007); and Why Does the Dog Chase the Rabbit [Zakaj teče pes za zajcem] (2008) have been produced by Forum Ljubljana and Mini Theatre. The theatre also collaborates with Kranj Puppet Theatre.
Nebo Puppet Theatre's productions appear regularly at Slovene and international puppet festivals. The performance The Choice [Izbira] (2003), directed by Petra Stare, received an Award for Best Direction and Performance at the Summer Pier International Puppetry Festival, Maribor. Nebo's performance This Is Ernest [To je Ernest] (2005), produced by Forum Ljubljana and co-produced by Cankarjev dom received an Award for Best Visual Concept at the 4th Biennial of the Puppetry Creators Institute (ULU), the Children Jury Award in the section "Mini-Mikro-Impro" at the puppet festival Summer Pier, and the Award for Original Idea at the International Puppet Theatre Festival Lutfest in Sarajevo.
In recent years, Andrej Štular and Nebo have led puppetry workshops at the Sotočje Festival, where some of Nebo's performances were also being presented.
