Театр на Юго-Западе

Театр на Юго-Западе is an experimental theater in Southwest Moscow with roughly 116 seats located in the basement of a residential building on Vernadsky Avenue. This small-scale space creates an immediate connection between performers and the audience.

This venue emerged in 1977 when Valery Belyakovich brought together two amateur groups from the Pioneer Palace and transformed them into a professional theater company. Since then, the stage has become an established home for theatrical work in this district.

The theater draws audiences with a varied collection of classics ranging from Russian authors like Gogol and Bulgakov to Western playwrights such as Camus and Sartre. This mix reflects how the venue positions itself as a place where different perspectives take the stage.

The entrance is roughly a ten-minute walk from Yugo-Zapadnaya metro station, starting from the first car toward the center. Allow extra time to find the basement venue, as the location is not immediately obvious from street level.

The building housing the theater served as a filming location for Moscow scenes in the film 'Irony of Fate.' This cinematic connection adds a layer of local significance that many visitors overlook.
