“The creation of the Drama Horse Theatre has always been my dream, the embodiment of which I have been engaged all my life.” (Evgenii Tkachuk) The history of the theatre has begun during the students’ years of Evgenii Tkachuk. It is based on the idea of harmony between humans and horses in the united space; the unity of drama and Slavic mythology that gave the name to the theatre – VelesO, in the honour of master of arts and wild nature – god Veles. During several years they had been gaining experience of working together with horses and the way they behaved with people; the first plays were staged “The Little Prince”, “For her sake”, “Steed is the dearest for Cossack”. They had also changed several places of the theater. The number of adherents who believe in the power of arts and free flight of creativity. In 2016 the theatre moved to village Lepsary in the Leningrad region. Creativity is an endless process…

The Yusupov Palace is a unique architectural ensemble of styles from the XVIII to XX century. Cultural monument acclaimed as an "encyclopedia" of St. Petersburg aristocratic interiors. The palace and manor complex were built over two centuries and features the work of prominent Russian and foreign architects. Today the Yusupov Palace is one of the few aristocratic mansions where you can experience ambiance of luxurious life of the Yusupov family. The astonishingly beautiful interiors, restored with the work and talent of St. Petersburg's restoration artists, welcome everyone.

I had been to the traditional Mariinsky once before when it still had its Soviet name the Kirov Theatre. It's a fabulous place to see opera and ballet and to watch the Petersburg aficionados. We saw the opera 'Sadko' by Rimsky Korsakov which is four hours long with two intervals and composed of seven tableaux. It is an entrancing fairy tale with a Sea Princess and other entertaining characters. The staging was gorgeous. It is well worth seeing even if you're not an opera fan. The surtitles were in both Russian and English which helped a lot. We had seats in the first level of the galleries in box 15. Great view. But some other people in the box had shuffled the chairs around and tried to take the front row chairs we had paid more for. Fortunately, the competent usher sorted it all out. Another night we went to the new Mariinsky 2 theatre and it is jaw droppingly beautiful with the foyers lined with illuminated onyx. Wow. The acoustics are superb in the theatre and we loved the production of Richard Strauss' opera 'Die Frau ohne Schatten' - The Woman without a Shadow. Book via the Mariinsky website. We had no trouble at all with booking or with presenting the tickets we had printed at home. Watch out for expensive online scalper sites. Book direct with the Mariinsky (and the Bolshoi in Moscow).
