Donetsk Academic Regional Drama Theatre (Ukrainian: Донецький академічний обласний драматичний театр, romanized: Donetskyi akademichnyi oblasnyi dramatychnyi teatr) was a theatre in Mariupol in southern Ukraine. The modern theatre was constructed in 1960 in the approximate location of the former Church of Mary Magdalene. The theatre was known as Donetsk Regional Drama Theatre before it was given academic status in November 2007. It was largely destroyed by Russian military airstrikes on 16 March 2022, resulting in the deaths of around 600 people.
