Before The Theatre
Two operas of a famous Neapolitan composer Giovanni Paisiello (1740 – 1816), were premiered at Kamenny Ostrov (before this theatre was built):
- Il matrimonio inaspettato (La contadina di spirito, 1779 Kamenny Ostrov)
- Il mondo della luna (1782 Kamenny Ostrov).

Famous quotes containing the word theatre:
“The theatre is supremely fitted to say: “Behold! These things are.” Yet most dramatists employ it to say: “This moral truth can be learned from beholding this action.””
—Thornton Wilder (1897–1975)
