Abandoned Theater in Moscow

To continue the topic of abandoned places in Russia I would show you an abandoned theater in Moscow.

During Soviet era it was a centre of cultural life – now it stays abandoned.

Probably it would be renovated someday and more visitors would come to enjoy some Russian classical plays shown on it’s scene.

      This is the main reason why i come to this site–occasionally truly interesting photos, especially when it’s the “abandoned building” sets– there’s something beautiful and haunting about these places. Hollywood spends money to build sets that look like this– why not just have more people scouting out locations in Russia and all the former Soviet Republics?

      Because the average American probably couldn’t find Russia on the map.

      ^^^ I’m with you, I love abandoned places and this blog has very good pictures of them!! Keep up the good work, I would be honored to go here.

      what theatre is it exactly? where’s the place?

      Hollywood does a lot of on location film-making in eastern Europe. They like the ‘new’ locations, skilled workers for hire, and plenty of extras to hire and new faces.

      Be careful what you wish for, filming can be damaging on a building/site. You have to put a clause on the contract to make sure that they fix things and clean up after themselves.

      Hell no. Hollywood in those abandoned places? that means they have to be made safe, they have to have all the shit in there and stuff. No that ruins the whole abandoned part. Let hollywood make their crap and stay away from this Eastern European and Soviet beauty. Keep posting this stuff. The reason i have this site on my toolbar is because of those Chernobyl pictures. Keep finding more abandoned stuff, or more small villages. Soviet architecture is gorgeous. Love the site.

      That place would make an excellent nightclub - I’m sure some enterprising young russian will invest and turn it into a fantastic place.

      Superb post as always…

      I am sure it must have been an architectural spelndor back in it’s hayday. It sure would be nice to see it fully restored and funtional again.

      Hasn’t anyone squatted any of these places yet? What with all the homeless and stuff, surely they could band together and take over one of these buildings if no-one wants them? Or am I being stupidly naive?

      im not sure this is allowed here, but check these out - pictures of abandoned places i took this summer in Abhasia, Gagry. its not russia anymore, but im sure there are still plenty of places like that in Russia too.

      People that make this site seem to have a kind of animalistic pleasure from any sign of disaster that happens in Russia. Even a view of an old theater under reparation makes them feel happy.

    14. Igor says:

      Definitely these photos are fake. There is no such place in Moscow. Property is too expensive to be ‘abandoned’. It’s a bs.

      Wow! These are amazing!

      this looks like something straight from BioShock! cool!

    19. Snapush says:

      I wonder is it still exists?:)
      Is it possible to reach it still?:)
