History and specificity
The theatre was founded by Sergei Fedotov in 1988. First performances took place in the Worker's Culture House of Perm Telephone factory, which was situated next door to the Kama Bridge. Later the name "Near the Bridge" became a symbol of the theatre spirit. A bridge symbolizes connection between real and otherworldly, everyday and mystical, conscious and unconscious.
Sergei Fedotov's artistic method is aimed at developing traditions of Russian psychological theater, enriched by the discoveries of the schools of Mikhail Chekhov and Jerzy Grotovsky. Using this method a director works with psychophysics of the actor, with internal energy and subconscious.
The first set of the theatre was “The Mandate” by Nikolai Erdman. The premiere took place on October 7, the Birthday of N. Erdman.
In 1989 Sergei Fedotov set a symbolic performance “The animal” by M. Gindin and V. Sinakevich.
"U Mosta" won its fame with the performance "Pannochka" (1991) based on the story "Viy" by Nikolai Gogol. Since then it was shown more than 3000 times.
In 1992 it has been formally registered as a theatre and got a new building at 11 Kuibysheva street in Perm, which also is situated next door to the Kama Bridge.
