  • Start the evening with a reservation at a cozy local pre-theater bistro where you can catch up, relax, and enjoy warming up for the evening's main event. Afterward, leisurely head to the majestic and historic theater where you're taken back in time to witness a riveting and heart touching performance.
  • The ambiance of the theater, with its opulent interiors and the whisper of history in its corridors, adds an extra layer of intrigue and mystery to your date. Soak up the rich culture and experience wrapping yourselves in the gripping performance that keeps you both on edge.
  • To top off the perfect evening, step out into the fresh nighttime air of Saint Petersburg and walk along its historic streets, reflecting on your experience and sharing your favorite moments from the performance. Maybe even grab a late-night coffee or decadent dessert to end the evening on a sweet note.

Preparation steps:

  • Make sure to book your theater tickets at least a week in advance to ensure getting the best available seats. Research into performances fitting your tastes - it could be a classical ballet, a dramatic theater performance, or an opera, based on what interests you both.
  • Check the timings of the performance and plan your dinner accordingly. We recommend making a reservation at a bistro nearby, giving you ample time to not feel rushed and enjoy your meal.
  • Dress up for the evening in semi-formal attire to match the elegance of the theater. Also, find out if photography is allowed within the theater premises. If it is, you might want to carry a camera to capture memorable moments of your special date.

Some tips:

  • While making your plans, check the weather as a sudden rain can drench your post-show walk plans. Carry an umbrella just in case. Check the theater's in-house rules and etiquette to avoid any embarrassing moments.
  • Try to arrive at the theatre at least 15-20 minutes before the show. This will give you time to visit the restroom, grab a drink, find your seats, and glance through the program.
  • Engaging in a discussion about the performance afterward adds an intellectual depth to your bond and can lead to some insightful and pleasant conversations. Even if you are not too familiar with the type of performance you've watched, just sharing personal impressions can make for great conversation.
