State Academic Russian Drama Theatre Mikhail Lermontov, Russian drama theatre in Almaty, Kazakhstan.
The State Academic Russian Drama Theatre occupies a central location in Almaty, presenting performances entirely in the Russian language throughout the year.
Established in 1933 in Semipalatinskoe, the theatre relocated to Almaty and received its name in honor of Mikhail Lermontov during the 150th anniversary of his birth.
The theatre maintains a repertoire of Russian classical works, featuring plays by Gogol, Chekhov, Ostrovskiy, and international dramatists like Shakespeare and Moliere.
The venue underwent extensive renovations in 2006, receiving modern stage lighting, sound systems, and updated ventilation facilities before reopening in December 2008.
Local residents refer to theatre company members as Lermontovets, a term that entered Almaty's everyday language during the 1960s.
