It will be, in the architect's words: &quot;A new district of spectacles and dreams open to one and all.&quot;<br /> <br /> The Theatre is a curved building emerges like an island at the center of a lake. The titanium shell is in the shape of a super ellipsoid. The building houses three performance auditoria - a 2,416-seat opera house; a 2,017-seat concert hall and a 1,040-seat theatre - as well as art and exhibition spaces open to a wide public and integrated into the life of the city.<br /> <br /> [[Category:Theaters]][[Category:architecture]]</div>
