Bolshoi Theatre

The Bolshoi Theatre in 2002

The Bolshoi Theatre is a historic theatre in Moscow, Russia, which holds performances of ballet and opera.

History

In September 1918, after escaping from the Russian Assassins pursuing them, the Assassin deserter Nikolai Orelov and Princess Anastasia Nikolaevna met in front of the Bolshoi Theatre. There, Nikolai provided Anastasia with fake papers to allow her to leave the country under a new identity, and the two parted ways.

The theatre was secretly situated above the library of Ivan the Terrible, used by the Assassins to store important artifacts like the Prophet's Codex. In 2002, the Templar agent Daniel Cross attended a play at the theatre, but left to find the library's hidden entrance, retrieving the Codex shortly after.
