State New Experimental Theatre

The State New Experimental Theatre is a regional cultural institution in Volgograd, housed on Mira Street in the Tsentralny District. The building features a main stage designed for theatrical productions alongside spaces that support experimental work and performances.

The original building was established in 1915 and suffered damage during the Battle of Stalingrad from 1942 to 1943. After World War II, the structure underwent complete reconstruction and reopened in 1952 as a revitalized theatrical space.

The theatre has served as a platform for experimental and contemporary works, making Volgograd a notable center for performing arts in the region. The stage offers space for both classical reinterpretations and new artistic expressions that reflect modern theatrical thinking.

The venue hosts regular evening performances throughout the week at various times. You can purchase tickets at the on-site box office or arrange them in advance through online channels.

Rather than being restored to its original state, the theatre was essentially rebuilt as a new project in 1952 following wartime destruction. This second founding makes it a symbol of cultural reconstruction and artistic renewal in the region after conflict.
