A wonderful theater with a special atmosphere and a wonderful troupe and a magnificent building. A small but very cozy auditorium, beautiful halls, portraits of actors, unique chandeliers. The performances are in the Belarusian language, the actors are simply incomparable - everyone's courage and charisma are worthy of applause. The hall has a parterre, an amphitheater and a balcony. Tickets can be purchased both at the box office and on the theater's website (card payment) in advance.

Every trip to the Kolosovsky Theater in Vitebsk is a celebration. The updated repertoire is impressive, and there are many touring performances. The tours of the Smolensk Drama Theaters and the Chamber Theater became a real discovery. Wonderful acting, choice of productions. Balzaminov's wedding is an interesting director's vision, scenery, and a game of youth corpses. Bravo. I liked the performances of the Sverdlovsk Musical Comedy Theater. The performances of regional theaters are not inferior to those of the capital, and Vitebsk residents are happy to attend them.

We really enjoyed the children's performances! The performance "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" was amazing... We even wanted to go a second time. And now we've enjoyed the play "All mice love cheese." And after the performances, we really like to go to the galleries with photos of the artists and find those who were in the roles at the performance. We will definitely come back! And from the adult - the magnificent work "Zdraneiskiy zamaleiki" about Ilya Repin, which the theater artists performed directly at Ilya Repin's estate "Zdranevo" as part of the Slavyansky Bazaar-24. I'm looking forward to season 25, I hope that this work will be shown again!

Incredible productions, especially comedies. The performance of the troupe is at the highest level. I visit the theater once a month consistently. I really like the performances of "Maya jonka padmanschytsa", "Shukayem tenara", "Fantsiki". I recommend. All performances are in the Belarusian language.

Residents of the Rosson region express their sincere gratitude to all participants of the musical and poetic evening "How I love the depth of your tender eyes...", dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory, which took place at the Cultural Center on May 9, 2025 . Theatrical performances for residents of Rosson are a rare event, but they always enjoy great audience interest, the hall is always sold out. The performance is wonderful, the actors are talented, and everyone has positive impressions and good memories.

The building itself is steeped in history, it's interesting to walk around the floors and take a look! Evaluating the repertoire and playing is a bit beyond my competence, but it was interesting. An interesting idea is to move the buffet to the "Theater", and here the disadvantage of the Theater is that there is a menu for visitors, but there is nothing from the menu!!!

The theater looks big from the street, but it's actually quite small inside. The Soviet entourage can be traced throughout. The actors are good. They try so hard that they often even overdo it.

A very decent theater with an excellent repertoire. We were on "Joking to the tenor" (in Belarusian)-very funny, interesting, bright. The theater begins with a hanger-a comfortable wardrobe, it is pleasant in the theater, there is something to see, an original interior. Be sure to go, I recommend it!

The building itself and the interior of the USSR times, the stage could be painted, and the chairs put modern. BUT, probably, such an entourage helps to return to childhood, there is a feeling of nostalgia and you realize that in the theater it's all a trifle, and what is important is the acting. I don't consider myself a theater expert, but I liked everything, the only nuance is that the actors speak Belarusian, which is natural in principle. In principle, everything was clear and I spent time with interest. If you are thinking of going or not, go for sure, the ticket is not expensive, the game is decent, I did not regret a second of my time

The theater of Ya Kolos is magnificent in everything. Architectural style, interior decoration, a beautiful grand staircase and a cozy auditorium. I love our Theater. And if we talk about the play "One Evening", then there is also a wonderful performance by the actors. Thank you for the mood.

The performance was successful, the actors played well. The audibility is good. The hall is beautiful, the chandelier, the background, the atmosphere. The staff is not the most friendly, but it does not play a big role. The stage is slightly shabby, I would like to make repairs. However, after the performance began, it didn't matter. In general, I liked everything, I will return there again

There are TWO official languages in our state! But all the performances are turned off on the Belarusian move! The arrival of nonresident and foreign troupes with their performances brings freshness to this "sad current". I try to go to such touring performances. The building itself makes an impression (Soviet monumentalism with its quality). A beautiful, classic theater building. Clean and tidy. Inside, too, everything looks as you would expect in a theater. Pleasant impressions. The seats are comfortable and clean. Conclusion: with a good performance, it is very easy to get pleasant impressions when visiting the theater.

Good theater and repertoire. There's just one thing. It's summer, it's hot, the hall is full of people, and there's nowhere to get REGULAR DRINKING WATER. The cafe is closed and it looks like it has nothing to do with the theater (drinking from the tap in the bathroom.I did not take the risk) THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO THE HEADS OF THIS INSTITUTION FOR TAKING CARE OF PEOPLE!

It's not the first year I've been going to the performances of our theater, and I can say that our theater is excellent. The actors are professionals, the productions are interesting! You always leave the auditorium under the impression. I highly recommend it to everyone, go once and you will be a regular). I have my favorites among the actors, for example, Georgy Loiko, Raisa Gribovich. To the Theater of prosperity and new cool productions!!! One of my favorite old plays is "Mlyn". Bring him back to the stage!!! It's a masterpiece.

What an amazing performance of the actors, what a return, how many positive emotions they give. Once you get here, you want to come again and again. We were at two performances of "nibita ailments" and "fantsiki" - to say that I am delighted is to say nothing. Many thanks to the actors for their attitude to their work and art in general.

We were at the play "ride". I liked the performance as a whole. But while waiting in line in the dressing room, the women who check tickets at the entrance were rude, they were in a hurry to get home, and it was as if we were holding them up. Unpleasant aftertaste

The staff is 50/50, someone is a disgruntled boor, and someone is polite and smiling. The atmosphere is pleasant, the hall is cozy, the performances are interesting and the actors play well. The only thing is that repairs would not hurt, it doesn't look very good from the outside.

It is very cold in the hall in autumn and winter. Experienced theatergoers wear outerwear and do not take it off during the performance. In my opinion, this is not respect for artists and the theater. The seats are old and not very comfortable. I didn't see the buffet, which is completely incomprehensible...
