Mariupol theatre

Donetsk Academic Regional Drama Theatre or Mariupol Drama Theatre is a theatre in Mariupol in southern Ukraine. The modern theatre was constructed in 1960 in the approximate location of the former Church of Mary Magdalene. The theatre was known as Donetsk Regional Drama Theatre before it was given academic status in November 2007.

It was largely destroyed by Russian military airstrikes on 16 March 2022, resulting in the estimated deaths of at least a dozen to over 600 people, in what was labelled a war crime. In 2023, restoration work began on the building with Mariupol under Russian occupation. The restoration of the drama theatre was completed in November 2025.

It was reopened in December, facing criticism by Ukrainian city authorities and former performers.
