The venue operates under the title of an 'Academic' theater, a prestigious designation in Ukraine that indicates high artistic standards and historical significance.
The theater is named after Lesya Ukrainka, one of Ukraine's most prominent poets and playwrights, whose works are frequently featured in the repertoire.
The facility is part of a larger theatrical institution that has served the Kamianske community for several decades.
It utilizes a 'repertory system' where multiple productions rotate in the schedule, rather than long-running single shows.
The Nova Stsena (New Stage) is a secondary performance venue of the Lesya Ukrainka Academic Music and Drama Theater located in Kamianske. This facility serves as a modern cultural hub for the city, hosting a diverse repertoire including classic Ukrainian drama, contemporary plays, and children's performances. The venue is maintained under the administrative umbrella of the primary theater located on the central square. It features a dedicated auditorium designed to provide an intimate setting for chamber performances and experimental theatrical works. The building functions as an essential component of the regional arts infrastructure in the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. Productions are staged regularly throughout the season, with a focus on high-quality repertory theater.
