Today the Moscow Art Theater celebrates its 125th anniversary.
🎭 The Moscow Art Theater was founded by Konstantin Stanislavsky and Vladimir Nemirovich-Danchenko in 1898. Since 1989, the theatre bears the name of Anton Chekhov, one of its main authors.
🏫 The MAT was established with a special emphasis on making theater more public, with a focus on the formation of a fixed troupe and repertoire, both of which would allow for an in-depth and naturalized performance. It reformed the way that theater was practiced and revolutionized dramatic theory with Stanislavsky's system.
Nowadays the Theater is only growing; it already has 3 stages to perform in Moscow. As of today Konstantin Khabensky, Russian actor of stage and film, director and philanthropist, holds the post of the Artistic Director of the MAT.
🎉Our best wishes of continued success on the theater’s 125th anniversary!

🩰 The Moscow Academy of Choreography celebrates its 250th anniversary
The Moscow State Academy of Choreography commonly known as The Bolshoi Ballet Academy is one of the oldest schools of ballet in Russia. Its history dates back to 23 December 1773, when Catherine the Great issued a Decree prescribing the introduction of first ever “dancing classes” to the curriculum of the Moscow Foundling Home sponsored by the Empress herself. The Empress believed that the “perfection of upbringing and nurturing” is the surest way to make better people.
🌐 The school of ballet has impacted the evolution of classical ballet in a number of countries – the USA, Japan, Korea, Finland, Italy, Greece, Bulgaria, etc. Students of the Academy have been participating in most prestigious international and Russian ballet contests. In the last two decades, they have won over 400 prizes and diplomas in Russia and abroad.
✍️ The Presidential Decree of January 16, 2016, renders the Academy an Especially Valuable Cultural Heritage Site of Russia.
In 2️⃣0️⃣1️⃣9️⃣, the Academy opened three Branches – in Vladivostok, Kaliningrad and Kemerovo.

💬 «In 2023, the Moscow State Choreography Academy marks its 250th anniversary. Such an impressive date is a great and significant event for the team, for numerous admirers of ballet, and for the entire Russian culture. And therefore, it is gratifying that the celebrations will be held across the entire country from Kaliningrad to Vladivostok.
Over the years, the Academy has raised a brilliant galaxy of talented performers, teachers, and choreographers whose selfless work created high canons of performing skills and multiplied the great traditions and glory of Russian ballet».
