The building of the Bolshoi Theatre will be open for public only in autumn 2008. Its restoration is planned to be finished in March 2008. According to the Russian Minister of Culture Mikhail Svydkoi, the tours to perform on the restored stage have already been scheduled. "Thus, in autumn 2008 La Scala Theatre is expected to show up on the new stage". The Bolshoi Theater was closed for restoration in July 2005. At present the Bolshoi gives performances on the New Stage open six years ago to replace the 180 year old original stage. Opera and ballet shows take place on the New Stage and in the Kremlin Palace, but on a considerable smaller scale: the second theatre has only 800 seats, and performers complain about the lack of rehearsal and make-up rooms.
