The author identified grounds for Ukrainian national and cultural revival in the Russian-speaking town, highlighted the role of local nationally-oriented intellectuals and members of ОUN combat groups, characterized leaders’ involvement in revival of Ukrainian movement. The «Prosvita» society played an important role in a public cultural life. The attitude of Nazi authorities to this institution is described by different stages of occupation. Practicing the art of drama became important direction of activity for local intelligentsia within a national and cultural revival context.
