Большой театр за 22 минуты

The Bolshoi Theater needs no introduction - it is known all over the world. But do you know why the theater building burned down four times, and who revived it from the ashes? Why were the artists more afraid of cats than fire? How did the premiere of Swan Lake fail, and how did Tchaikovsky call the hallmark of Russian ballet “pure rubbish”? Does size matter when it comes to the Bolshoi Theater? You will find the answers to these and other questions about the great writer in our issue of the series “In 22 minutes”. Enjoy watching on the Dostoevsky Lecture Hall. Timecodes: 00:00 - In this issue 00:50 - Tulips in honor of the Bolshoi Theater 01:37 - Start.
