Romen Theatre

Romen Theatre is a musical and dramatic theatre in Moscow housed in the former Sovetsky Hotel building at Leningradsky Prospekt, showcasing classical Soviet architecture with specialized acoustic characteristics. The venue provides performance spaces designed specifically to enhance the quality of theatrical productions.

The theatre originated from a Roma studio called Indo-Romen that presented its first production, Life on Wheels, in 1931. From this beginning, it evolved into an established performing arts institution dedicated to this cultural expression.

The theatre presents performances that blend Roma and Russian musical traditions, featuring eastern tonalities and synchronized dance movements that reflect the cultural identity of the Roma community. Visitors experience a living artistic expression of traditions that have shaped this vibrant performing arts space.

The venue holds regular performances Tuesday through Sunday, with convenient access from Belorusskaya and Dinamo metro stations. Plan your visit in advance to ensure you can attend the show you prefer.

The theatre stands as the only continuously operating dramatic and musical repertory institution worldwide dedicated to Roma culture. This rare distinction makes it a singular venue for experiencing the artistic expressions of this community.
