On the opening day of the theater, the prologue “The Triumph of the Muses” by A. Alyabyev and A. Verstovsky was shown, allegorically depicting how the Genius of Russia, with the help of the muses, from the ruins of a burnt theater created a new beautiful temple of art - the Bolshoi Petrovsky Theater. The prologue featured the best actors of the troupe: the Genius of Russia was performed by the famous tragedian Pavel Mochalov, the god of arts Apollo was performed by singer Nikolai Lavrov, and the muses of Terpsichore were performed by the leading dancer Felicata Virginie Gyullen-Sor. After the intermission, Ferdinand Sor's ballet "Cendrillon" was shown. “The brilliance of the costumes, the beauty of the scenery, in a word, all the theatrical splendor is combined here, as well as in the prologue,” wrote music critic V. Odoevsky. In order to bring “equal pleasure to all residents of Moscow,” the theater management decided to repeat this performance the next day.

On a cloudy, frosty morning on March 11, 1853, for an unknown reason, a fire started in the theater. The flames instantly engulfed the entire building, but the fire raged with greatest force on the stage and in the auditorium. “It was scary to look at this giant engulfed in fire,” an eyewitness described the fire. “When it burned, it seemed to us that a person dear to us, who endowed us with the most beautiful thoughts and feelings, was dying before our eyes...” Muscovites fought the flames for two days, and on thirds, the theater building resembled the ruins of the Roman Colosseum. The remains of the building smoldered for about a week. Theatrical costumes collected since the end of the 18th century, excellent scenery for performances, the troupe's archives, part of the music library, and rare musical instruments were irretrievably lost in the fire.

On August 20, 1856, the Bolshoi Theater, restored by A. Kavos, was opened in the presence of the royal family and representatives of all states with V. Bellini’s opera “The Puritans” performed by an Italian troupe. The Moscow ballet of this period owes its successes to the talent of the Frenchman Marius Petipa, who settled in St. Petersburg. The choreographer came to Moscow several times to stage performances. The most significant of his Moscow works was “Don Quixote” by L. Minkus, first shown in 1869. Petipa subsequently transferred the Moscow edition of this ballet to the St. Petersburg stage.

The alabaster Apollo group that decorated the Beauvais Theater was destroyed in a fire. To create a new one, Kavos invited the famous Russian sculptor Pyotr Klodt (1805-1867), the author of the famous four equestrian groups on the Anichkov Bridge over the Fontanka River in St. Petersburg. Klodt created the now world-famous sculptural group with Apollo. It was cast in the factories of the Duke of Lichtenberg from a metal alloy plated with red copper. The size of the group has become one and a half meters higher than before and reaches 6.5 meters in height. It is moved forward and placed on a pedestal along the ridge of the portico roof. ...Four horses, arranged in one row, gallop at a gallop, dragging behind them a quadriga - an antique chariot on two wheels. They are controlled by the god Apollo, his head is crowned with a wreath, and in his left hand there is a lyre... During the reconstruction of the auditorium, Kavos changed the shape of the hall, narrowing it towards the stage, and deepened the orchestra pit. Behind the stalls, where there used to be a gallery, he built an amphitheater.

1941 was a very difficult year for the Bolshoi Theater. On October 14, 1941, the government, showing special concern for the preservation of creative personnel and artistic values, evacuated the Bolshoi Theater workers with their families to the city of Kuibyshev (Samara). The theater building in Moscow was empty... The team spent a year and nine months in evacuation. In the first days, only concerts of artists, the opera “La Traviata” and the ballet “Swan Lake” were given on the stage of the Kuibyshev Palace of Culture, and at the end of 1942 the premieres were shown: on November 8, the opera “William Tell” by D. Rossini, awarded the State Prize, and December 30, ballet "Scarlet Sails" by V. Yurovsky. In 1943, the theater showed 9 opera and 5 ballet performances in Kuibyshev, not counting numerous concerts.
