Tovstonogov Theater building, Theater building in Saint Petersburg, Russia
The Tovstonogov Theater building exhibits classical architectural elements with symmetrical facades, large windows, and decorative stone embellishments throughout its exterior structure.
Following its inauguration in 1878, the structure operated as the Suvorin Theatre until 1919, when it became the permanent residence of the Bolshoi Drama Theater.
Numerous Russian theater productions take place in this venue, presenting works from classical playwrights alongside modern dramatic interpretations throughout the performance season.
The theater maintains a regular schedule of evening performances from Tuesday through Sunday, with box office hours extending from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM daily.
The building underwent specific structural modifications in 1932 to incorporate advanced stage mechanisms while maintaining its nineteenth-century architectural characteristics.
