The theater has been performing since 1935. Before that, there was “the Folk's House" – the center of culture and education in Nizhny Novgorod in the beginning of the 20th century. Gorky and Shalyapin provided financial aid in construction. The theater annually hosts the National Opera and Ballet Art Festival called "The Boldino Autumn'.
We advise to learn about actors and other performances, novels which formed the libretto basis. Then you will be able to enjoy the classical opera, the operetta or to note all details of performing art of the ballet troupe.
