Since the theater is a monument of local historical and cultural significance, particular attention will be given to restoring its architectural features, including the historic flooring of the hall and the mosaic in the foyer.

A new building will be constructed next to the theater, featuring a hall with 200 seats, workshops, and a training stage.

All work is expected to be completed by 2026.

The State Academic Russian Theater for Children and Youth named after Natalia Sats is the first state children's theater in our country. It was established at the initiative of the renowned director and theater arts figure Natalia Ilyinichna Sats. The premiere performances of "Little Red Riding Hood" and "The Siege of Leiden" took place on November 7, 1945. In 1995, the theater was awarded the honorary title of "academic."
