Ballet at THE Bolshoi?

Introduction

The theatre is a masterpiece of Russian neoclassical design. The Bolshoi has a history that’s almost as dramatic as one of its performances. The original theater was Prince Urussov’s Public Opera and Ballet Theatre.

First disaster

The first disaster struck in 1805 when the fire damaged it beyond repair. The architect, Osip Bove, designed a new building which opened in 1825.

Second disaster

Disaster struck again in 1853 when the theatre caught fire and the blaze raged for days. Almost all the interior was destroyed, but the outer walls remained more or less intact. The interior of the building was rebuilt in 1856.

Famous performances

The Bolshoi has always been associated with ballet. It has hosted some of Russia’s most famous performances. Glinka’s opera «A Life for the Tsar» premiered here in September of 1842. In 1877 Tchaikovsky’s «Swan Lake» and in 1960 Khachaturyan’s «Spartacus».
