The first classical opera in immersive format — you will descend into the world of illusions created by Alexander Pushkin and Pyotr Tchaikovsky in their immortal works.

This world unfolds at the historic Goncharov-Filippov mansion. Around you swirl seventy performers, including a live orchestra of 30 musicians, 16 soloists from Moscow’s leading theaters, a full chorus, ten dramatic actors, and a corps de ballet.

Only 54 viewers, the number of cards in a deck, will be admitted to each performance, echoing the mystic numerology pivotal to Pushkin’s chilling tale. The opera retains its original structure, comprised of three acts, seven scenes, and the one and only Queen of Spades.

One of the main sources of inspiration: theater innovator Vsevolod Meyerkhold’s groundbreaking production of Queen of Spades in 1935.
