The Mariinsky building is interesting not only for its unusual semicircular shape, but also for its interior furnishings. When visiting the performance, you should pay attention to the following attractions:

Royal box. It is one of the largest and most pompous in the building. The box was once decorated with a monogram, which picturesquely combined the first letters of the names of Tsar Alexander II and his wife.

According to legend, this is how Russian tsars visited their beloved ballerinas incognito.

An orchestra pit with a rising and falling floor. For this purpose, hydraulic lifts are built into it. During the restoration of the building, a layer of fragments of broken crystal glassware was discovered under the floor covering.

Alexander Golovin Hall, built directly under the roof of the theater and bearing the name of the outstanding Russian painter late XIX- first half of the twentieth century. Nowadays, most of the sets for operas and ballets are created here. Many of them can easily be called masterpieces visual arts. The room still houses a chair in which the artist painted a portrait by his colleague Yakovlev. This painting can be seen in the foyer of the 3rd tier.

The room is famous for the fact that it was in it that Golovin painted his famous canvas, on which the brilliant Chaliapin is depicted in the image of the usurper Godunov from the opera of the same name. Here prominent people quarreled Russian poets Voloshin and Gumilev, and it came to bloodshed and a duel.

A curtain. Its author is the same Golovin, who executed it surprisingly skillfully in the 1910s.

• "The Legend of the Invisible City of Kitezh and the Maiden Fevronia." This mystical story about love for the Motherland and the tender feelings of a prince and a simple girl, in the interpretation of the directors, received a completely new sound. From the Old Slavonic legend, the action of the opera is quite organically transferred to our modern reality with homeless people and the clothes of the heroes familiar to the 21st century. People portraying animals, insects instead of dashing Tatar invaders, and today's homeless people in the role of beggars of the 13th century look quite shocking.
• "Swan Lake". The main stage of the theater has become the scene of beautiful action thousands of times love story between Prince Siegfried and the enchanted swan princess, who never lost her charm. The ballet to the immortal music of Tchaikovsky is a classical choreographic production based on the ideas of the famous choreographer Marius Petipa.

• "Carmen" IN new version The opera features the same famous opera parts, but its action is somewhat modernized and evokes more associations with our reality. The director’s special find is the use of large quantity stairs According to him, they symbolize the desire human soul to something sublime and divine.
• "Salome". This is one of the most anticipated productions of the New Stage of the Mariinsky Theatre. Bible story Herod's beautiful stepdaughter, who demanded the prophet's head on a platter, turns into a struggle of global ideas on which human society is based: selfishness and altruism. Modern video graphics add to the spectacle of the opera.
• "Jenufa." The story of a lonely pregnant girl who was abandoned by her lover is as old as the world, but the Mariinsky artists managed to give it a new sound. In the complex family ups and downs of this opera, many of the audience will recognize what happened to them or their friends.
• "Giselle". The experiences of the young heroine, who was deceived by her lover and died suddenly, are unlikely to leave ballet fans indifferent. Incredible beautiful dancing characters that reflect the whole gamut of human emotions will be a real gift for true aesthetes.
