Kyiv Academic Regional Music and Drama Theater, Regional theater in central Kyiv, Ukraine
The Kyiv Academic Regional Music and Drama Theater is a performance venue for musical productions and dramatic works in the city center. The building contains multiple halls equipped with both modern and classical stage technology for varied productions.
The theater was founded in 1933 and grew from a small municipal venue into a major regional institution. It has endured significant shifts in Ukrainian society while maintaining its role in the region's artistic life.
The theater bears the name of artist Panas Saksahansky and presents Ukrainian classics, international works, and contemporary productions. The performances reflect the artistic diversity that shapes the city's cultural life.
The theater offers regular evening performances Tuesday through Sunday, with matinee shows on weekends and special programs on national holidays. Plan ahead as popular shows can sell out quickly.
The institution also functions as an educational center, offering workshops and training for emerging performers in collaboration with local arts schools. These programs support the development of the next generation of artists in the region.
