St. Petersburg is a city with a rich cultural program, which attracts tourists from all over the world. Museums with rare collections, exhibitions of contemporary artists and various festivals occupy a special place in this cultural program, but for true connoisseurs we offer theater.
The winter season in St. Petersburg is rich in performances and shows. Where to go and what to see if you are staying at a hotel in the center of St. Petersburg, we tell you in our article.
Colorful shows
Modern shows with music and dance are unusual, fresh and no less interesting. If you are looking for such a performance, we recommend purchasing tickets for:
- musical “The Master and Margarita” at the LDM theater, “New Stage”;
The musical “The Master and Margarita” is an international project, on which actors and specialists from both Russia and European countries worked. It combines music, spectacular scenery with 3D elements and an intense plot that will immerse you in a classic story, but with an unusual twist.
- the musical “Frankenstein” at the Musical Comedy Theater;
The director and composer of the musical "Frankenstein" managed to preserve the essence of Mary Shelley's original novel, but added more drama, vocals and flashy special effects to it.
Classic stories
For lovers of the timeless classics, we can offer:
- the play “Oblomov” at the theater. Komissarzhevskaya;
The novel “Oblomov” is already more than 160 years old, but the theme of “Oblomovism” will never lose its relevance.
- the play “Cinderella” at the Lenfilm film studio;
The New Year's production of “Cinderella” will immerse you in the pre-revolutionary atmosphere, a noble Christmas tree and the magical world of history’s heroes. Come to the performance early to take part in a short interactive experience.
- production of “Dead Souls” at the theater. Lensovet;
Dostoevsky and “Dead Souls” are one of the symbols of St. Petersburg, but not the one that tourists are used to seeing, but another – poor and frightening.
The investigation play lasts 2 hours and 40 minutes, but all this time it will keep you in suspense and waiting for the outcome.
- ballet “The Nutcracker” at the Mariinsky Theater;
“The Nutcracker” and the Mariinsky Theater are a must see if you come to St. Petersburg for the Christmas holidays.
