The acting Head of the Komi Republic Rostislav Goldstein has opened negotiations with the artistic and general director of the Mariinsky Theater Valery Gergiev on opening a branch of the Mariinsky Theater in Komi, a northwestern satellite of the Russian Federation.
Gergiev, 72, also has an offshoot in Vladivostok and runs the Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow.
There are no limits to his ambitions – within Russian borders.
