The Mariinsky Theatre made history when it showed the world's first opera finished with computer help. The show called Mandrake opened on June 19 at the theater's New Stage. Smart computer programs helped create this musical story based on ideas from famous Russian composers Tchaikovsky and Rachinsky. The show became a major highlight during the St. Petersburg Economic Forum and the White Nights festival. This new production marks an exciting moment when art meets modern technology.

Three different computer systems worked on separate parts of the opera. GigaChat wrote the words that singers perform during the show. SymFormer completed the musical parts that the orchestra plays. Kandinsky designed all the beautiful stage decorations and costumes that audiences see. People carefully watched over the computers to make sure everything stayed true to the original style. The timing celebrated Tchaikovsky's 185th birthday as a special tribute to his musical genius.

German Gref from Sberbank said many talented people worked together on this project. He explained that computers can save time and let creative people focus on making art. Valery Gergiev runs both the Mariinsky and Bolshoi theaters and believes technology helps modern performances. Famous singers from Europe and Asia joined the production to make it truly international. Vasily Ladyuk and Alina Chertash sang the main parts as award-winning opera stars.
