Police with sniffer dogs searched three sites in the theatre complex after a specific bomb threat was received by email at the city prosecutor’s office. No further details have been made public.

Tonight, José Carreras makes his debut in the Mariinsky in the Christian Kolonovits opera, El Juez.

He is expected to dedicate the performance to the memory of Elena Obraztsova, who died this week.
