The Union of Theatre Workers of Russia marked its 150th anniversary with a gala concert on the Historic Stage of the Bolshoi Theatre. The event was timed to coincide with the organisation's Tenth Congress, at which, on the same day, it received a new name: the Russian Theatre Society. President Vladimir Putin took part in the ceremonial gathering.

The concert programme combined opera, ballet, dramatic art and folk dance, and the stage design was realised with the participation of Sber. The SberStudios team used the neural networks GigaChat and Kandinsky to create moving painterly and architectural images that accompanied the twenty numbers. Thanks to a two-layer projection, the images were shown on the main screen and on a transparent mesh in front of the stage, creating an illusion of depth.

A peculiar guide between the performances was Stanislavsky, or rather his digital avatar, recreated by Sber's specialists from archive video recordings. He acted as master of ceremonies, introducing the numbers and linking them into a single tale of the theatre and its people.
