English: Union of Theatrical Figures of the Russian Federation or Union of Theatre Workers of the Russian Federation or Theatre Union of the Russian Federation (Russian acronym: STD — Soyuz Teatralnykh Deyateley) dates back to the time of establishment of Compassionate Actors' Benefit Society in 1877. It was Russia’s first organization for artists. In more than 100 years of its existence the association lived through many changes and acted under different names. Currently the Theatre Union is the Society’s legal successor with a membership of up to nearly 25 000. It acts as the umbrella organization for 75 local branches in different regions of the Russian Federation with headquarters in Moscow. [1]
