The reconstruction of the Gorky Theatre in Minsk is planned to be completed at the end of 2026

The theater begins with a face. The historical facade of Gorky in Minsk is almost ceremonial. The restoration is nearing completion. We can say that it was a premiere experience – two epochs in one drawing. Soon, not a house, but a monument will shine with light. The audience is waiting for a real work of art.

There is an interest and desire to go inside. But, as in the famous song, everything did not immediately settle down. The total area of the building is more than four thousand square meters. And everyone should serve the National Academic Drama.

Alexander Shafranovich, director of construction of the SMU No7 in Lida: “There are now more than a hundred people at the facility, work is underway in one and a half shifts, plus all weekends are involved. Weekends, of course, are a little smaller on Sunday, regulated so builders can rest, but the pace is tense. As far as the interior is concerned, the finishing works have already been completed.”.

They strengthened the foundation, replaced the electricians who played their communications. And secrets come out. They opened a forgotten niche for sculpture in the hall.

Natalia Gromyko, Director of the National Drama Theatre named after M. Gorky: “We roll the repertoire at the venues of the city.” These venues are provided by the Palace of Trade Unions, the Central House of Officers, the Palace of the Republic, the Minsk Concert Hall, the Small Stage. And the viewer with pleasure wanders behind our artists, behind our troupe in all these venues. And we're doing new shows. Since September 30, we are waiting for our audience on the stage of the Central House of Officers. We're gonna have a new show. This is the work of Alexander Shevtsov “We are from the future”.

December 26th in Gorky is the “third bell season”, when the viewer is back to where there are many lights: through the cash register, in the foyer to the big stage. Watch the poster. And you will know the day and the day. Ticket repertoire is only in November.
