In 2010 the auditorium suite of halls were renovated: the Lobby, the Main or the White Foyer, the Choral, Exhibition, Round and Beethoven halls. Muscovites were able to admire the restored facades and the renovated symbol of the Bolshoi Theatre — the famous Apollo quadriga, created by the sculptor Peter Klodt.
The Audience hall (auditorium) has regained its original beauty – brilliancy of the Renaissance mixed with the Byzantine style. And now each spectator of the Bolshoi Theatre may feel himself just like the 19th century theatergoer; impressed with magnificent and at the same time “light” décor. The bright crimson, scattered with gold, draping of the interiors of the boxes, the different on each level stucco arabesques, the Apollo and the Muses plafond — all this contributes to the auditorium’s breath-taking impact. On 28 October 2011, the Bolshoi Theatre was re-opened with the ballet and a concert featuring international artists and opera companies.
