Udmurt Opera and Ballet Theatre

The Udmurt Opera and Ballet Theatre is a cultural building in Izhevsk with multiple performance halls of different sizes and modern backstage facilities. The architecture combines contemporary elements with classical features to create a functional stage environment.

The theatre was founded in 1958 and moved to its current building, which has served as a major performance venue since the 1980s. The relocation brought improved facilities that support professional productions.
