The Russian Drama Korsh Theatre (Russian: Русский драматический театр Корша), commonly known as the Korsh Theatre, was a theatre which functioned in Moscow, Imperial Russia from 1882 until 1917. It was named after its founder, entrepreneur Fyodor Korsh.

After the 1917 Revolution it carried on for several years under different guises, known variously as the Union of Artists, The Third RSFSR Theatre, The Comedy Theatre (Former Korsh), and finally the Moscow Drama Theatre, before being finally shut down in 1933. The building, situated on Petrovsky Lane, is now occupied by the Theatre of Nations.
