Description of the attraction
Theater of Drama and Comedy. Aronetskaya in Tiraspol is the only theater in the whole of Transnistria that has a professional status. Since its opening, the theater has repeatedly faced many problems. But despite this, from an ordinary studio theater, he gradually grew into the Transnistrian State Drama and Comedy Theater. The theater bears the name of Nadezhda Stepanovna Aronetskaya, who made a huge contribution to the development of the theater, bringing it worldwide success.
In 1934, the local authorities decided to build a special theater building in the city of Tiraspol. The author of this project was the architect G. M. Gotgelf, professor of the Civil Engineering Institute in Odessa. The project was a compact, symmetrical neoclassical complex.
Until that time, three theater troupes had already been fully formed: Moldovan, Ukrainian and Russian, which historically were destined to work in a new building until 1940, and after the founding of the MolSSR, two of them moved to the new capital - the city of Chisinau.
The theater building was badly damaged during the Great Patriotic War. The restoration work was completed only in 1963. For 5 years, the theater was used as a stage for all city events, as well as for performances by visiting groups.
Since 1969, after the release of the order of the Ministry of Culture of the MSSR "On the organization of the Russian drama theater in Tiraspol", a new page has begun in the history of theatrical art of this region. The official opening of the drama theater took place in March 1969 with the performance of A. Arbuzov "City at Dawn" directed by NS Aronetskaya, who determined all the laws and traditions of the theater.
More than 30 performances staged by the team of the Drama and Comedy Theater named after Aronetskaya, were awarded high awards at various international, all-Union and republican theatrical competitions. Only in 1975, thanks to the performance "Vasily Terkin", the theater added 7 silver medals named after A. Popov to its collection.
Today the theater employs over 30 actors. Together with People's Artist of the RM and PMR I. Taran, People's Artists of the PMR A. Ravl and E. Tolstoy, Honored Artists of the PMR I. Serikova, V. Klimenko, N. Volodina and T. Dikusar, a young generation of actors is working on the stage. managed to achieve success in the theatrical art.
