History of the theater

From the numerous applicants to “become a theater,” the most worthy groups were selected that “fully met” the requirements of that time:

...not in the usual sense of the word, but excited speakers who will fight on stage in Komsomol style for the implementation of the plan by industry, for new harvests...

TRAM opened its first season in August 1929 with a propaganda performance in the style of a “synthetic club spectacle” “The Boisterous Cohort” based on the play by the Putilov worker Ivan Skorinko. The play is staged by director G.V. Brouwer, specially invited from Moscow.

In the early 1930s, the TRAM team was already touring Eastern Siberia.

In the second half of the 1930s, working youth theaters were reorganized throughout the country.

Among the famous names of the Irkutsk theater scene of those years were the actors of the Youth Theater: P. Lavrov, I. Korshunov, V. Shesternikov, N. Evtyukhov, Honored Artist of the RSFSR M. Roshchin, V. G. Klimanova.

Playwright Pavel Malyarevsky, who worked as head of the literary department for many years, had a noticeable influence on the theater’s repertoire and the creative development of the group. His plays were staged for the first time on the stage of the Youth Theater: “Puss in Boots”, “Wonderful Treasure”, “Not Yours, Not Mine, but Ours”.

A striking event in the pre-war theatrical life of Irkutsk was the play “The Gadfly,” noted by critics and the press, based on the revolutionary romantic novel by Ethel Voynich.

In the first years of the war, the theater hosted the premieres of Malyarevsky’s fairy tale play “The Fall of Blutenbeil Island” and “Moskvichka” based on the play by Viktor Gusev. The theater team gave concerts and small performances in hospitals, factory floors and field camps.

In the mid-1980s, artists from the Irkutsk Youth Theater wrote poems dedicated to Vampilov.

Over the years, the theater stage staged “Drama due to Lyrics”, “Shine, Shine, My Star”, “Night Tale”, “Lefty”, “Children of Vanyushin”, “Forest Song” based on the play by Lesya Ukrainka, which aroused keen interest to the Youth Theater (dir. V. Kokorin). The Irkutsk Youth Theater was the first and only theater in the country where the play “High Voltage” based on the play by Andrei Platonov was staged.

Over the years of its activity, the Youth Theater has staged dozens of performances, which were visited by many spectators and received their well-deserved recognition.

Over the years, the following directors worked in the theater: N. P. Kolpakov, V. Ya. Moldavsky, I. S. Gorodetsky, S. S. Kazimirovsky, M. A. Norvid, E. D. Korsakov, V. I. Danziger, V. V. Kokorin, V. Z. Fedoseev.

Cleansing both your own and your neighbors’ souls from filth,

We are getting better and everyone is getting better.
Here, invisible threads stretch from heart to heart -
There is no end to art, so create, create, create!...

Bringing to the stage the kindness in our acting souls,
We play love, we hear the smell of fake flowers.
Tears in our hearts and hot tears on our makeup...

There is no end to art - people, be like this in life!
