Teatralniy proezd (Theatre passage, 1961-1990 – part of Marx Avenue) – a street in the Central Administrative District of Moscow. It runs from Theatre Square to Lubyanka Square. The numbering of houses is carried out from the Theatre Square. Teatralniy proezd is crossed by the streets: on the left: Petrovka, Neglinnaya street, Rozhdestvenka; right: Tretyakovskiy proezd.
