The Ukrainska Besida Theatre (Ukrainian: Театр Української Бесіди, romanized: Teatr Ukrainskoi Besidy, lit. 'Theatre of the Ukrainian conversation'; until 1916:[1][2] Ruska[N 1] Besida Theatre, Театр Руської Бесіди, Teatr Ruskoi Besidy)[3] – was the first Ukrainian professional theatre in operation from 1864 to 1924. Its first performance took place in the premises of The Ukrainian National Home (Народний Дім) building in Lviv. The theatre was subsidized by the Ruska Besida Society in Lviv and occasionally supported by the Galician Diet.[4]
