We only saw it from the outside because in August it is closed for holidays, but also from the outside it looks great!
Very nice, with the fountain in front, the colonnade and the night lighting is even more impressive.

Such a beautiful place.
Went for the tour and our guide was great.
At the end of the tour while we were still getting ready, a security guard rudely told us to got out of the place quickly. Such a bad experience to end an awesome tour.

An impressive building. It is unfortunate that because of my airline I missed the performance last time. The reason for rating it 3 is because they make it unreasonably difficult for tourists to view the inside of the building, carefully check their visiting schedule and rules and be early if you want to get in - as a visitor that is, not with your ticket.

As glorious as ever. The theatre's interior is luxury on a royal scale.

Prices are high (ballets generally more than operas) but production value is incredible, especially for the operas.

A bit of a maze to explore at the intervals. Modern cafe on top floor. Small gallery showcasing photos & costumes, but i feel like there could be more, considering the building's history.

I came here first almost 20 years ago when it was almost exclusively foreigners that could afford it. With the change in Moscow's growth, it seems the tide has turned with a good mix of locals and foreigners enjoying the arts here.

Very beautiful but almost impossible to get tickets to. There is a theater right behind it which is also considered "Bolshoi", but it's a newer building and is not as beautiful as the main building. Be aware.

United forever in friendship and labour,

United forever in friendship and labour,
Our mighty republics will ever endure.
The Great Soviet Union will live through the ages.
The dream of a people their fortress secure.

Long live our Soviet motherland,
Built by the people's mighty hand.
Long live our people, united and free.
Strong in our friendship tried by fire.
Long may our crimson flag inspire,
Shining in glory for all men to see.

Through days dark and stormy where Great Lenin lead us
Our eyes saw the bright sun of freedom above
And Stalin our leader with faith in the people,
Inspired us to build up the land that we love.

Long live our Soviet motherland,
Built by the people's mighty hand.
Long live our people, united and free.
Strong in our friendship tried by fire.
Long may our crimson flag inspire,
Shining in glory for all men to see.

We fought for the future, destroyed the invaders,
And brought to our homeland the laurels of fame.
Our glory will live in the memory of nations
And all generations will honour her name.

Long live our Soviet motherland,
Built by the people's mighty hand.
Long live our people, united and free.
Strong in our friendship tried by fire.
Long may our crimson flag inspire,
Shining in glory for all men to see.

The Bolshoi Theatre. The very case when writing and speaking is not worth it. This, like Paris, is seen once at least until death. A better pair for the season. True, over the years, changes in the troupe are not for the better. And the staging is not every sensation. But this does not really change anything. If you don t fly to Vienna for dinner and go to La Boheme, believe me, you will like it.

Incredible and historic place, both outside and inside, right next to the red square and close to some metro stations. It is the perfect place to entertain yourself with a good play, with ballet, or simply to take a picture and start touring the center of Moscow.

Going through this theater is definitely in experience, but you have to be aware of certain nuances. First, it is absolutely stunning. Broadway cannot compare to the majestic beauty and grandeur elegance of this theatre. However, do not go under dressed. We are used to dressing casually in the States, but you will be shocked to see how beautifully people dress at this theater. The makeup, the attire, it's comparable to watching an Oscar's event. Having said that, I did see various individuals dress in jeans, but it's your choice.

Somethin else, and this is most important. They sell seats in louges which are laid out in three rows of three seats each. If you are in the second or third row you will not see the stage! Tickets are expensive, at least a $100 - $150 each, but you will find that most people stand, yes stand, through the hole act! Frustrating is not the word to describe it. Rip off is more like it. We were standing with hundreds of other people watching a barely visible show after paying hundreds of dollars for tickets. Of course when you buy tickets there are no warnings of for obstructed views as you would expect to see during the purchasing process in the States.

So now you know.

Experience to live. It is absolutely worth attending a show. From the official Bolshoi website it is very easy to reserve seats. Pay attention that at the ticket office they will ask you for the passport and credit card with which you bought the electronic ticket, which you will have to replace with the original one before the show.

Is it possible to say something bad about Theater Square where the Bolshoi Theater and the Maly Theater are located, as well as the Youth Theater and the Central Department Store and the fountain uniting all this magnificence of architecture. Sumptuously

I looked at the "Mermaid" on March 9. Do not you think that the academic theater is simply obliged to show the performances according to the authors' intention, and for experiments and personal readings there must be More

A fantastic place. The building, both outside and - above all - inside is impressive. These boxes, balconies, stairs, ground floor of the audience with "rich" decorations. You feel that this place is amazing. And when it starts playing music and the performance begins, you move to another world. The world of Tchaikovsky, Mussorgsky, Prokofiev and other composers. During the interact, you can rate the refined costumes of some of the viewers. Unfortunately, there are long queues at the locker room.

When one is standing in the square, admiring this beautiful building, it is difficult to get used to the idea that one is in front of the Mecca of the greatest dancers of the 20th century. The best ballet artists were trained here. A really beautiful and inspiring site.

A magnificent place, fabulous. In front of the Bolshoi Theater in the evening, a gentle blue fan, a Christmas tree toy, a mask. The toy's right. The spectators tied with the illumination of the Central Department Store. Inside the Bolshoi Theater there is a serpentine staircase to the 7th floor, transparent elevators. The Magic stage, air ballerinas. Such can only Russian ballerinas Decoration to the ballet La Bayadere magical. The orchestra is amazing, the best I have not heard. Audiences are grateful, only you can hear "Bravo". Soloists are worthy of praise. Staff are polite.3 The actions of the "La Bayadere" are held in one breath.The director- ostanovschik highly spetsialist.Spasibo to everyone who made this tale in Moscow.
