Voronezh Circus Truzzi

In Voronezh, the circus as an art form beganto develop relatively recently, in the nineteenth century. Until 1882, the Voronezh circus was performing, and then a huge wooden building was built on Starokonnaya Square (present-day Lenin Square). Then it was the largest building, which only cost the stable, which housed hundreds of horses.

The owner of this largest provincialThe circus was Italian M. Truzzi. Then the well-known artist A. L. Durov began his clown career. It was here that he trained animals, the first of which were the ram, rooster and pig.

Circus Cooperative Association

In 1905, a new building for the circus was built, it contained a half thousand seats and was located on the Theater Square.

In 1918, K. Faccioli, K. acted here.Gebel, A. A. Durov, G. Zerendorf, E. R. Durov, and others. They showed a show called "The Frustrated Chains, or the Triumph of the Revolution." These people organized a circus partnership and called it "Cooperative". Thus, the private Voronezh circus Truzzi was replaced by the cooperative circus association.

In 1924, on the site of a wooden old circus building, a new brick building appeared, with the inscription "State Circus", which numbered about three thousand places.
