Kyiv Academic Theatre of Drama and Comedy on the left bank of Dnieper

The Kyiv State Drama and Comedy Theatre on left bank of Dnipro river (Ukrainian: Київський академічний театр драми і комедії на лівому березі Дніпра) is a theatre in Kyiv in Ukraine. The Kyiv State Drama and Comedy Theater on the Left Bank (Left Bank Theater) - the first theater on the left bank of Kyiv - was born on September 7, 1978. The first troupe gathering was held on this day. And the first premiere - the play "The Highest Point - Love" by R. Fedyenov - was held on April 21, 1979. A play by Vladimir Vinnichenko in 1992 became the first Ukrainian performance at the Russian-speaking theater. In May 1982, the City Hall gave the team and head Eduard Mytnyckyi the building, which housed the Cosmos Cinema up to that point. Initially, within its walls was created "Theater in the lobby" - the first small stage in Kyiv and Ukraine. In the first 15 years of its existence, the theater embodied the actual, topical drama. The theater changed its direction and began to focus attention on classical works in the 1990s. On January 18, 2019, Stas Zhyrkov and Tamara Trunova became theater directors. The new team began the process of reformation and upgrading. Theater left in the repertoire classical drama performances, and start to supplement performances of original, actual texts on acute-social topics. Today, Left Bank Theater has more than 50 performances in the repertoire, including physical theatre and modern comedy del arte play. The Kyiv State Drama and Comedy Theater on the Left Bank toured in Georgia, Belarus, Latvia, Lithuania, Germany, Poland; always has participated in international theatrical festivals and has become one of the best Ukrainian theater for 40 years of history.

Hydropark (Kyiv Metro)
Hydropark (Kyiv Metro)

Hydropark (Ukrainian: Гідропарк, (listen)) is a station on the Kyiv Metro's Sviatoshynsko-Brovarska Line. It opened on 5 November 1965 as part of the construction of the Brovarsky radius. The station is situated on the Venetsiansky Island right next to Hydropark. Unpopulated and not used for housing, it was transformed by the station into a summer resort for Kyivans when it fell in between the future line to Darnytsia and the new Brovary avenue that ran parallel to it. Such planning is explained in the seasonal operation timetable which make the station rather distinctive. During the summer months, it receives quite a moderate passenger traffic, particularly on weekends and public holidays. During the winter months, there have been known instances when not a person would get on or off the station for whole weeks. There have even been attempts for the station to be skipped during peak hours. In its appearance, the station is a typical example of the 1960s policy on Soviet public architecture. The station demonstrates its fully, minimise costs, simplicity (hence being surface level) and aesthetic appearance (architects I. Maslenkov and V. Bohdanovsky). A lone grey granite faced platform with a concrete hinged roof is supported by green ceramic tiled pillars. The only decoration that prevents the station from losing its face completely are small ceramic flower motifs on the top of the pillars. Entrances and exits come from two vestibules that are located under the platform and connected with large subways that run underneath the station and Brovary Avenue. A unique feature of the station is that in addition, it has a second southern platform that would have allowed a quicker unload of passengers from the centrebound areas. However, its use has been discontinued in 1985 and in turn a second, western vestibule was built in 1990. However, during the winter months, it is closed and the space is used otherwise.
