History
This famous theatre, now dedicated to Maxim Gorky, is the best-known of all Russian theatrical organizations outside the U.S.S.R. Founded by Stanislavsky and Nemiro-vich-Danchenko, its early history is closely bound up with that of Chekhov.
In 1968 the company moved into a new theatre, built on the site of the old one but much larger, and having in addition to the main auditorium, holding 1,800 people, a smaller one for rehearsals, two for recordings, and a drama museum.
