Chuvash State Opera and Ballet Theater, Opera house in Cheboksary, Russia
Description
The Chuvash State Opera and Ballet Theater sits on Moskovskiy Avenue in Cheboksary with a brutalist architectural style completed in 1985. Designed by architects R. Begunts and V. Teneta, this building serves as the main venue for opera and ballet performances in the city.
History
The institution was founded in 1960 and launched with the premiere of 'Water Mill' by F. Vasilev. The current brutalist building was constructed later in 1985 to provide a modern home for the growing opera and ballet program.

Visitors can buy tickets through the official website or directly at the box office located in the building. It helps to check schedules ahead of time since the theater hosts regular performances and special events throughout the year.
