A.P. Chekhov State Russian Drama Theatre
Theatre in Centre, Chișinău
The A.P. Chekhov State Russian Drama Theatre, run under the Ministry of Culture, performs in Russian in its building on Vlaicu Pîrcălab Street 75 in the city centre. The repertoire mixes Russian and world classics — Dostoevsky, Chekhov — with contemporary plays, from Matei Vișniec to comedies by Ray Cooney, Marc Camoletti and Ken Ludwig.
Children’s shows are a big part of the programme, usually at weekends: fairy tales such as Puss in Boots and a musical tale based on Grigory Oster. New premieres are announced on the theatre’s website and Facebook page.
The theatre also serves outside clients: it rents out costumes, props, sets and technical equipment, builds sets and props to order, and hires out its hall for events compatible with a theatre.
The current playbill and online tickets are on the theatre’s website; box office contacts are in this listing.
