This coin commemorates the 100 years since the establishment of the Maria Zankovetska Ukrainian National Academic Drama Theater. The theater, which was founded in 1917 with the support of the Central Council, and which was called the Ukrainian National Theater, brought together actors from various theater companies. The government sponsored the theater`s tours, which gave performances in Kyiv, Chernihiv, Poltava, Zhytomyr and Katerynoslav. The company included famous Ukrainian actors such as Maria Zankovetska, Varvara Liubart, Olha Polianska, Hryhorii Marynych, Borys Romanytskyi, as well as talented young actors. The complicated social and political developments, and the constant change of governments in those days, had a bearing on the theater`s development: the theater was reorganized several times and bore different names (the People`s State Theater, the Ukrainian People`s Theater, and the People`s Theater). The theater also changed its location - from 1931, it operated it the city of Zaporizhia; while in 1944 it moved to Lviv, where it has been operating until the present day.
