About National Opera and Ballet Theatre of Belarus

National Opera and Ballet Theatre of Belarus is located in the Gorky Park in Trinity Banlieu. The theatre began performances since 1933. The building that houses the theatre is an important pre-war monument and has a lot of national importance. There are more than 240 performances that are staged every year. In 1996 the theater was separated into two independent theatres: The National Academic Grand Ballet Theatre and The National Academic Opera Theatre. In 2008 they once again combined to become what it is at present. The building was majorly renovated in 2009 with many beautiful sculptures being added around the building. The most up-to-date lighting and technical equipment were added corresponding to the original design.
