started in 1783 when the Bolshoi
(Stone) Theatre was open in
Petersburg, where dramatic opera
and ballet performances were staged.
In the night on 26 January 1859 the
circus burnt. On its site by the project
of the same architect a new theatre
was built, designed for music and
drama performances. The width of a
stage and a proscenium were
increased; for improvement of
acoustics the ceiling was filed by
boards.
