There are not many theatres in my town, but they are all very popular with the public. I am a theatre lover, too. As for me, I prefer drama to all other theatres, but I also like opera and musical comedy. I’ll never forget my first visit to the Opera and Ballet Theatre. My friend and I wanted to see the famous ballet “Swan Lake” by Tchaikovskyi. We bought the tickets in advance and came to the theatre half an hour before the show. At 7 sharp the performance began. В моем городе не так много театров, но все они очень популярные среди театралов. Я тоже люблю театр. Я отдаю предпочтение драматическому театру перед всеми другими, но люблю также оперу и музыкальную комедию. Никогда не забуду мое первое посещение Театра оперы и балета. Мы с другом хотели посмотреть знаменитый балет Чайковского «Лебединое озеро». Мы заранее купили билеты и пришли в театр за полчаса к спектаклю. Ровно в 7 часов начался спектакль.

From the very first minute I was deeply impressed by everything I saw on the stage. The costumes were fine. The dancing and music were thrilling. The ballet seemed to me a fairy-tale. I had never seen anything more wonderful. My friend also enjoyed every minute of it. When the curtain fell at the end of the performance, there came a storm of applause. It seemed that it would never end. The dancers received call after call. They were presented with large bouquets of flowers. We also applauded enthusiastically. The performance was a great success.

Из первейшей минуты я была глубоко пораженная всем увиденным на сцене. Костюмы были замечательные. Танец и музыка необычно взволновали меня. Балет сдался мне сказкой.  Мой друг тоже наслаждался каждой мигом этого спектакля. В конце спектакля, когда опустился занавес, прозвучал гром аплодисментов. Казалось, они никогда не закончатся. Танцоров вызвали снова и снова. Им дарили огромные букеты цветов. Мы тоже с захватом аплодировали. Спектакль имел огромный успех.
