The Drama Theater (Saratov) has existed since the beginning of the 19th century. Many great actors have worked on his stage. The repertoire consists of both performances based on classical works and performances based on plays by contemporary Russian and foreign authors.

History of the theater

The Drama Theater named after Slonov (Saratov) was founded in 1803. The second half of the 19th century was marked by the fact that this city began to be considered the cultural and theatrical capital of the Volga region. Such great actors worked on the stage of the Saratov State Academic Drama Theater: K. A. Varlamov, P. A. Strepetova, V. F. Komissarzhevskaya, M. G. Savina, A. P. Lensky, V. I. Kachalov, V. N. Davydov and many others. For many years, his repertoire included performances exclusively based on plays by foreign and Russian classics. The theater has been named after Ivan Slonov since 2003. This man was the founder of the Saratov theater school. A great contribution to the development of SGATD was made by actors, directors and artistic directors who worked here in different years: V. V. Aukshtykalnis, A. I. Dzekun, A. V. Kuznetsov, L. S. Muratova, G. A. Aredakov, G. A. Aredakov, E. I. Danilina,A. L. Gripich, L. N. Grishina, A. G. Galko, N. A. Bondarev, R. I. Belyakova, I. A. Rostovtsev, E. V. Blokhin, V. A. Ermakova, V. A. Fedotova, I. M. Bagolei, S. V. Sosnovsky, V. P. Nazarov, Ya. I. Yanin, V. I. Mamonov, E. V. Torgashova and others.
