History

The Musical Theater of Rostov-on-Don was founded in 1919. He received state status after 12 years. Then it was called the Theater of Musical Comedy. The repertoire included only operettas. The Rostov theater was one of the best in the Union. He immediately gained popularity. He did not stop his creative growth even in the difficult war years. The theater passed this test with honor. The artists continued to delight the viewer, instilling hope for victory and giving strength to endure.

In the post-war years, a large number of new productions appeared in the theater's repertoire. Among them are the performances of "Corneville Bells", "The Sea Spread Wide", "The Gypsy Baron" and "The Tobacco Captain".

At the end of the 20th century, the repertoire included productions of new popular genres inmusical theater - rock opera and musical. Among them - "Juno" and "Avos", "Cabaret", "Sharman Cancan", "My Fair Lady", "Sister Kerry", "Abduction", "Murder Order" and others. The performances immediately became popular with the audience.
