Donetsk Academic Regional Drama Theatre (Ukrainian: Донецький академічний обласний драматичний театр, romanized: Donetskyi akademichnyi oblasnyi dramatychnyi teatr) was 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.[3] The theatre was known as Donetsk Regional Drama Theatre before it was given academic status in November 2007.[1] It was largely destroyed by Russian military airstrikes on 16 March 2022,[2] resulting in the deaths of around 600 people.[4]
