North Ossetian Opera and Ballet Theater, Opera and ballet theater in Vladikavkaz, Russia.

The North Ossetian Opera and Ballet Theater stands on the Terek embankment at 18 Tkhapseva Street in central Vladikavkaz. Its building was constructed in 1956–1958 to a design by architect Tamara Butaeva, on the foundation of an unfinished People's House planned by Ivan Ryabikin in the 1910s. The auditorium seats 680; the stage is 12 m high and 14 m wide.

The house opened in 1958 as a combined music and drama venue, then shifted its focus entirely to opera and ballet in 1972. That change showed how classical stage performance had grown into a field strong enough to support a dedicated institution in the region.

The repertoire pairs Russian and European classics with Ossetian national operas and ballets, among them Khristofor Pliev's "Kosta" and "Fatima", Ilya Gabaraev's "Azau" and Dudar Khakhanov's ballet "Khetag". The house also stages 16 national operettas and one musical. Since 2005 it has hosted the all-Russian festival "Visiting Larisa Gergieva".

The theater sits in central Vladikavkaz and can be reached on foot from the main squares of the city. It runs on a seasonal schedule, so checking what is on before visiting is a good idea, especially outside of peak season.

In 2017 the theater became a branch of the Mariinsky Theatre in Saint Petersburg, which is one of the most recognized opera and ballet houses in the world. This means visiting soloists and full productions from that company now come regularly to this city in the North Caucasus.
