The Moscow Provincial Theater was established in 2013. It was created by the merger of two regional theaters: The Moscow Regional Drama Theater, named after A.N. Ostrovsky and Moscow Regional State Chamber Theater. The Artistic Director - People’s Artist of the Russian Federation Sergey Bezrukov.
Speaking about the artistic direction of the new theater, Sergey Bezrukov recalls the famous Italian director Giorgio Strehler and his book “Theater for People “: “It seems to me that Strehler’s call to create a theater for people, is relevant today. We have learned to play people who have fallen to the bottom of life, to treat the marginal with attention, sometimes being interested more in human physiology than in their soul. In the Provincial Theater we will be interested in something else: the life of an ordinary person. Ordinary does not mean simple. When we talk about this, we mean those experiences of a person that unite both the rich and the poor. We are creating a theater accessible to all.”
