has survived several fires, and the modern building is a child of an architect Joseph
Bové.
Joseph Bové actually carried out the project of the winner of the contest for the design
of the new building of the Bolshoi Theatre – Andrei Mikhailov. However, this project
was recognized to be too costly. Bové also revised the design project, while improving
it significantly.
The new building is different from previous ones with its monumental grandeur,
commensurate proportions, and harmony of architectural forms, and richness of the
interior.
The Bolshoi Theatre is a compact rectangle in plan with an extended forward portico
with eight columns from the Theatre Square. The façade is decorated with a large
sculptural group – Apollo in a chariot with three horses – and is “looking” at the Theatre
Square. __
In the middle of the front part of the building, there is an entrance to the theatre with
grand staircases, the main foyer, a five-tiered audience hall and a stage. Side parts of
the building are divided into three floors and are reserved for other rooms of the
theatre; besides, there are located entrances to the top tiers.
The present theatre building has gable roof with frontons.
