Methodology. The cultural-historical method was used (to consider the general state of the domestic pantomime culture of the end of the XX – the beginning of the XXI century); synergetic method, thanks to which the historical paradigm of pantomime theater in Ukraine was studied; an art history method that contributed to the analysis of pantomime theater performances in an artistic context and a method of theoretical generalization. Scientific novelty. The specifics of Ukrainian pantomime theaters and their role in the socio-cultural space of the XXI century are studied; identified and analyzed the factors influencing the specifics of the development of Ukrainian pantomime theaters in the context of the transformation processes of the world and domestic socio-cultural space; trends and prospects for the development of the phenomenon of Ukrainian pantomime theater in the XXI century are indicated. Conclusions. The Ukrainian pantomime theater demonstrates unique forms of existence of the cultural text and uses a wide palette of sign-symbolic embodiments of pantomime culture. As a component of modern domestic cultural and artistic space, the Ukrainian pantomime theater is characterized by a wide representation, complex history of development and achievements, and is a significant platform for the translation of traditional socio-cultural values and norms, effective development of various elements of modern culture. At the present stage, the Ukrainian pantomime theater is a broadly chaotic system of contrasting phenomena, which, in turn, are internally ordered structures - schools, each of which declares its own conditions, becoming an independent, self-sufficient system.
