How reliable are performance there? Sources of lower cost tickets? Not center / orchestra , unless as "student" or "senior" discounted seats. Thanks in Advance ehgreen AT cape DOT com

It is better if you know some Russian. I bought the tickets from this lady who used to come to the university and sell them to students. Also, if you are a foreigner they are going to charge you a lot more. I was lucky because I am a student. Get somebody who is Russian to buy them for you and then give them the money, it will be much cheaper.
