TRAM (the Russian acronym for "
Teatr
RAbochey
Molodyozhi" or "Workers' Youth Theatre") was a
Soviet proletarian youth
theatre of the late
1920s and early
1930s. It was established by Mikhail Sokolovsky in a converted cinema on
Liteiny Prospekt,
Leningrad. The theatre was run as a
collective and produced
agitprop pieces modelled on
Bertolt Brecht; compared to other organisations of the time it placed more emphasis on the education of its audience and less on reaching the
lowest common denominator.
