The V. Mayakovsky Academic Theater is considered one of the leading in Moscow. The renowned cast of actors, which includes Igor Kostolevsky, Evgenia Simonova, Svetlana Nemolyaeva, Daniil Spivakovsky and many others, invariably gathers full houses. Considering the sold out, cashiers recommend buying tickets to this theater in advance.
Instructions
Step 1
Decide which performance you would like to see at the V. Mayakovsky Theater. To date, the repertoire includes both classical productions based on plays by Alexander Ostrovsky, Ivan Turgenev, Nikolai Gogol, as well as modern Western comedies and even vaudeville. If you want to look at a certain actor or actress, look at the repertoire list on the theater's website, or check at the box office in which performances he or she is engaged. If you are going to the theater for the first time and just want to have a good time, go to any theater forum on the Internet and ask the advice of avid theatergoers on the relevant topic.
Step 2
If time permits, go to the theater box office located in the theater building at the corner of Bolshaya Nikitskaya and Maly Kislovsky lane and buy tickets there. Keep in mind that the sale for the current month begins in the first days, so it is worth taking care of the purchase in advance. Or buy an e-ticket: this service is available on the theater's official website. The process will take some time, required for mandatory registration. In addition, not all tickets go online, so the choice of seats will be limited. Nevertheless, the service helps to save time: after registration and payment, you will receive a pin code by e-mail, with which you can print the purchased tickets. Since May 2012, you can also pay for electronic tickets to the V. Mayakovsky Theater in Euroset salons.
Step 3
Try to buy a ticket just before the start of the show you are interested in. The venture is risky, but it often succeeds, because in the evenings on the steps are either resellers or those who, for some reason, cannot go and want to sell their tickets. An alternative option is to look for an extra ticket on theater forums, where they are most often sold at face value, without "cheating".
Step 4
Having bought a ticket, electronic or paper, be sure to call the theater on the day of the performance or go to the official website. Check to see if any of the cast members are on tour due to illness or touring. In this case, you have the right to exchange the ticket or return it to the ticket office. If no force majeure has happened, come to the theater in advance so that you can enter the hall without haste and find your place.
