Theatre of Coryphaei
Ukraine
The Theatre of Coryphaei is a Ukrainian theatre. It is located in the city of Kropyvnytskyi (former Yelizavetgrad), Ukraine. The theatre was founded by Marko Lukich Kropyvnytskyi in 1882. Thereafter, its most active head was Mykola Karpovich Sadovsky, who promoted the use of Ukrainian language and Ukrainian theatre at a time when both were banned by the Russian empire. Maria Zankovetska and Panas Saksagansky are associated with the theatre. It adopted the style of syncretic theatre, which combined dramatic and comedic action with musical and vocal scenes, including choral and dance ensembles.
