Olga Kobylianska Chernivtsi Academic Regional Ukrainian Music and Drama Theater (Ukrainian: Чернівецький академічний обласний український музично-драматичний театр імені Ольги Кобилянської), also known as Kobylianska Drama Theater, is a drama and music theater located in Chernivtsi, Ukraine. The current building of the theater is a neobaroque architectural monument of national significance, built in 1905 by an Austrian architectural bureau Fellner & Helmer.[1]
In 1940, the theater received its first professional crew. In 1954, it was renamed after a Ukrainian writer and playwright Olha Kobylianska. In 2023, a new workshop chamber stage space of the theater was opened in the building of a historic electrical substation on Lesi Ukrainky Street.[2]
Chernivtsi Music and Drama Theater is a part of European Route of Historic Theaters.[3]
