Abstract. In the process of the formation of the Tatar national dramatic art and the formation of the Tatar theatre, Russian and foreign classics played a significant role. The Tatar theatre turned to Western drama from the first years of its existence. Of the vast world dramatic heritage, the plays of Shakespeare, Schiller and Moliere have proven to be in particular demand. In terms of the number of appeals in this triad of the greats, Moliere is in third place, however, he is not inferior to the English and German playwrights in terms of importance for the development of the Tatar theatrical culture. Moliere stood at its origins; his plays were staged in three pre-revolutionary troupes “Sayar”, “Nur” and “Shirkat”. The French playwright made a significant influence on the formation of the comedy genre line of the young Tatar theatre. Moliere's plays remain on his posters to this day. The article examines the reception of Moliere's dramaturgy by the Tatar theatre at various stages of its development.
