Bolshoi theatre

The Bolshoi theatre is one of the largest in Russia and one of the most significant in the world of Opera and ballet. The complex of buildings of the theatre is located in the center of Moscow, at the Theater square.

The theatre history is taken from March 1776, when the provincial Prosecutor Prince Peter V. Urusov received the assent of the Empress Catherine II to include theatre... all kinds of performances and concerts, vocaly and masquerades". The Prince began the construction of the theatre, which was named Petrovsky (at the location of Petrovka street on the right Bank of the Imperial government). Urusovs theatre burned even before its opening, and the Prince handed the business over to his partner, English businessman Michael (Mikhail) Maddox. Petrovka theatre was built under the leadership of Maddox by architect Christian of Rosberg in 1776-1789. The theatre was named after the street Petrovka, the beginning of which it stood close to the site, surrounded by a chaotic construction.

Three-storey brick building with white stone details and under plank roof has risen for five months and cost Maddox 130 thousand silver rubles, 50 thousand more than the estimate. The Grand opening was held on December 30 in 1780. The Theatre had stalls, three tiers of boxes and a gallery, containing about 1 thousand spectators, "Mascherano hall in two of the world", "card" and other special areas. The new round masquerade hall "Rotunda" added to the theatre in 1788. It was reconstructed last year.
