Satire Theater

The performances of the Theater of Satire are mostly comedic, which justifies its name. Actors are talented and famous. The theater began its existence in the distant 1924. It was located in the basement of the house where the cabaret "The Bat" was located. Now there is an educational theater GITIS. The first performance of the troupe is “Moscow from the point of view”. The director of the Theater of Satire at that time was David Gutman. The troupe decided on the genre immediately. Initially, the theater delighted the audience with humorous plays, satirical reviews, and parody performances. The main principle of the productions was dramaturgy, based on witticisms on the topic of the day.

In the 30s of the twentieth century, the troupe changed its “place of residence” and moved to a building onSadovo-Triumfalnaya Street, which in the 1950s passed to the Sovremennik Theatre. In 1933, D. Gutman was replaced by a student of K. S. Stanislavsky and E. Vakhtangov - N. Gorchakov. In the repertoire, parodies and plays were replaced by vaudevilles and light comedies written by both classics and playwrights of that time. In the mid-1940s, the Satire Theater changed its address again. Now he received the building of the former GOSET. Now the Drama Theater on Malaya Bronnaya is located there.

The “satirists” found their permanent building only in 1974, where they live to this day. It is located on Triumphalnaya Square, house number 2.
