This is a unique combination of tradition and innovation. Initially starting as a private initiative, the theater became state registered in 1991. The actors of the theater on Vasilievsky, popularly known as the “Ostrovchane”, acquired a reputation among their colleagues from other theaters.

The main trump cards of the "island" theater were comedies and farces. The theater is not limited to genre boundaries, presenting both Russian and foreign classics, as well as introducing the public to modern playwrights. Many of the theater's works have been awarded the most prestigious awards in the world of theatrical art, such as "Golden Mask", "Triumph" and "Golden Spotlight". Productions from great masters such as Denis Khusniyarov, Vladimir Tumanov, Andrzej Buben, Artem Tsypin, attract full houses and receive high marks in the art world. Directors Roman Viktyuk and Rezo Gabriadze also collaborate at the theater.

The theater's tours are not limited to the Leningrad region. The troupe of actors regularly travels outside the country, presenting their productions in near and far abroad. Touring in the CIS countries has also become a common practice for artists.

In addition to complex dramas and author’s variations, the theater’s repertoire also includes productions for children. Directors and actors create original fairy tales, beautifully designed and colorful to delight young audiences. The theater is also actively involved in charitable activities, providing assistance to children from disadvantaged and low-income families. Free charity performances become a constant holiday for young spectators.
