FULCRO* Independent Theatre Company

* in Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese — a fulcrum, a connecting link. Slang for "cool".
The authors of the FULCRO project are actors, directors, managers, artists, playwrights, and musicians, combining artistic, research, social, and political agendas in their work.
We are a team of co-creators, embracing a horizontal approach to theatre, free from the confines of any specific genre or artistic dogma. Central to our creative exploration is a profound interest in the study of human catastrophes.
The theatre was founded in St. Petersburg in 2020

A core group of alumni of Veniamin Filshtinsky’s acting school at the St. Petersburg Theatre Academy.

For two years, we lived and worked happily under the roof of the historic "Stepan Razin" brewery.

After the beginning of the war Fulcro theatre moved to Israel
In 2022, right after Russia invaded Ukraine, we ceased all repertoire activities within Russia.

Over the following year, most of our team members relocated to Israel, where they are now embarking on new life journeys in a new world. Discover our ongoing projects in the "Present" section.
