The A. Bryantsev Youth Theatre (also spelled State Theater For Young Audience Named After A. A. Bryantsev or Bryantsev Young Viewers Theater; Russian: Театр Юного Зрителя имени Брянцева) is one of the first professional children's theatres in Russia, opened in 1922. In Soviet time the theatre was called Leningrad Young People's Theatre (Russian: Ленинградский театр юных зрителей, ЛенТЮЗ). In 1962 it was moved to the current newly constructed building. The theatre is located in Saint Petersburg, on the Pionerskaya Square near the end of Gorokhovaya Street.

The theatre has been the start of many well-known actors, and is well known for playing fairytales.

The Theatre is named after its founder Alexander Bryantsev (1883-1961)
