“A gorgeous example of mid-80s architecture, without any irony. Filled with light and beautiful, hand-blown art glass globes. Concert seating is comfortable and spacious. Sightlines are good for music, not great for dance. Acoustics are not the best, but I would still visit because the location is gorgeous and the events are interesting.”
“Stunning building! Comfortable seats, good view of stage. Absolutely gorgeous interior!”
“Always pleasant to come back for some events”
- an aging Soviet building
