At the Theatre

Tomorrow I'll have my day off. I have booked tickets to the Bolshoi Theatre in advance and I'll go there tomorrow. I feel rather tired by the week-end and I want to rest well on Saturday and Sunday. I phoned my friend and invited her to go to the theatre. She liked the idea of going to the theatre together. She has a lot of work today. She is busy tonight. But tomorrow in the evening she will be free. We shall see «The Swan Lake». I saw this ballet two years ago. I like it very much and I'm sure I'll enjoy myself. As a rule operas and ballets at the Bolshoy Theatre are magnificently staged. Costumes, dresses, scenery, an excellent orchestra and famous conductors, celebrated singers and dancers – everything is the best there. As soon as the curtain is up you will forget everything except the performance. This is a marvellous theatre. I was fortunate to get good seats. We had two seats in the stalls. I don't like to sit right in the front. I prefer to sit some distance from the stage.

We'll have our last exam on the 23rd of January.

Will you join us for a skiing trip on Saturday morning at 11 o'clock?

I think not. I am taking my exam on that day.

How are you going to spend your holidays?

If I pass the exams successfully, on the 25th I'll leave for the rest-house.

Is it far from Moscow?

No, it's quite near, but the place is beautiful.

That's a fine idea. You'll have a good time there.

Yes, I hope so. I think I'll have a good rest there.
