Lenkom Theatre

, 1907-1908]]

Lenkom Theatre is the official name of what was once known as the Moscow State Theatre named after Lenin's Komsomol. Designed by Illarion Ivanov-Schitz, it was built in 1907 to house a Merchant's Club, and was home to many theatrical and musical performances. After 1918, the building was annexed by the local party committee, eventually becoming the home of "Theatre for Working Youth" (TRAM) in 1927. Thus, the future theatre established its reputation as a theatre for young people, by young people. Over its 80-year career, Lenkom has been a forerunner of new, fresh and exprimental theatre in the Soviet Union, and now Russia.

Lenkom has featured many of the most popular Russian artists, well-known by their work both in theatre and cinema, such as Andrei Tarkovsky, Yevgeny Leonov, Aleksandr Abdulov, Oleg Yankovsky, Inna Churikova, Leonid Bronevoy and Nikolai Karachentsov.

Один из лучших театров в Москве. Великолепные актеры под руководством легендарного Марка Захарова. Выверенный репертуар, все спектакли проходят с успехом при аншлаге. Отличные декорации, удобный зал.
