Performance tour " Lost in Corinthia" will take you through the most intriguing pages of the history of the majestic buildings of the XIX century on Nevsky Prospekt, now united in the hotel "Corinthia St. Petersburg". From 1869 to 1887, one of these buildings was home to the legendary Samoilov dynasty of actors, the center of the theatrical, musical and literary life of the imperial capital. It was visited by the most famous artists, writers and composers of that era, whose names are forever inscribed in the cultural chronicle of St. Petersburg.

You will learn about the key events unfolding within these walls through the secrets and daily lives of the Samoilov family and their famous guests.

You will visit spaces that contain echoes of their voices and creative arguments, and witness animated sketches from their brilliant and sometimes dramatic lives.

Immerse yourself in the atmosphere of artistic St. Petersburg in the second half of the 19th – early 20th century: the spirit of the era is carefully preserved in the hotel, and the historical facades and interior elements will take you back to the days when ladies in magnificent dresses and gentlemen in top hats strolled along Nevsky Prospekt. In addition, you can enjoy a unique view of the main avenue of the city, feeling like a part of its incessant history.
