Cherkasy Academic Regional Ukrainian Musical-Dramatic Theatre T. H. Shevchenko

The Cherkasy Academic Regional Ukrainian Musical-Dramatic Theatre T. H. Shevchenko is a performance venue in Cherkasy dedicated to both musical and dramatic works. The building houses a main auditorium shaped to accommodate these two art forms, with architectural features that reflect mid-20th century design principles.

The theatre was founded in 1932 as a workers' theatre and underwent several organizational changes over the decades. It gained its current academic status in 2006, which marked its recognition as an established cultural institution.

The venue stages classical Ukrainian works and contemporary national productions that allow audiences to connect with their own cultural heritage through live performance. Productions here honor the country's literary traditions while also giving space to emerging artistic voices and modern interpretations.

The venue sits on Shevchenko Boulevard where you can buy tickets directly at the box office or through the official website. It helps to check current show information in advance so you know what to expect before you arrive.

The theatre was founded with performers who had studied at the Third Studio of the Berezil theatre, an important artistic group from the early Soviet period. This connection to Berezil gives the venue a particular place in Ukrainian theatre history.
