Year of Theatre in Russia 2019: Exhibition “Tsarist Russia on the Imperial Stage” mounted in Tver

The Tver Regional Art Gallery invites visitors to the Imperial Palace to attend the exhibition “Tsarist Russia on the Imperial Stage”, which provides the atmosphere of theatrical productions. The exhibition is mounted to mark the Year of Theatre in Russia. On display are historical costumes from the collections of the Alexandrinsky Theatre.

The exhibition “Tsarist Russia on the Imperial Stage” showcases a so-called ‘boyar collection’, which is housed in the theatre: sketches, costumes and stage props from legendary productions of the 19th – 20th cc., which spotlighted the history of pre-Petrine Russia.
