How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
In Last Light, Artyom passes through Theatre, where performers still stage shows in the old station for audiences from across the metro.
The real place
Teatralnaya opened in 1938 on the Zamoskvoretskaya line and lies under Theatre Square, between the Bolshoi and Maly theatres.
Visiting
Come up on Theatre Square for the Bolshoi's columned front; tickets for performances sell out well ahead. Many Western governments currently advise against all travel to Russia, so check official advice first.
