Private Theatre by kwind

Private Theatre

The past two shots were taken in the privately owned Yusupov Palace in St. Petersburg, Russia. This theatre was also in the massive building! The place is almost beyond comprehension - a family of 4 lived there and they had their own theatre in their own house!! It even had a tiny orchestra pit! It's totally insane!! Apparently it is still used today!! I was standing near the stage looking towards the exit when I took this shot.

If you're interested there's a short you tube video I found that shows the space better than my shot could. You can skip over the ad in the beginning after just a couple of seconds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8ln7XITq_0
What a magnificent theatre!

So over the top for a family of 4. I can't even begin to understand that. It's certainly magnificent, opulent and extraordinary.
