The theater was founded in 1945 in another location. Today this is a repertory performing Russian and foreign classics, children's fairy tales.
The building was part of property of the city estate of the Golitsyn Princes. It was then part of the Former For Profit Building of the Society of Grants for Needy Students of the Imperial Moscow University. The theater was a concert hall called Romanovka.
Before the October 1917 revolution, this was a club for cab drivers. During the October Revolution, this house was occupied by the Red Guards, who led an attack again the Whites who entrenched at Nikitsky Gate.
Here in 1920 opened, GOSET, the State Jewish Theater. Solomon Michoels staged performances and acted; stage scenery was created by Chagall and Sternberg. GOSET was one of the most striking phenomena of the world's theatrical arts during the 20th century. The theater disbanded during the peak of anti-cosmopolitanism in Russia, sometime in the early 1950s, after the 1948 murder of Michoels.
In the 1950s the Satire Theater was located here briefly before it became the home of the Moscow Drama Theater. Anatoly Efros was the director for 18 years ending in 1984. Since 2007, the theater has been headed by Sergei Golomazov.
