The façade is decorated with various sculptures, a symbol of the theater became a Pegasus. This exquisite hall with richly decorated walls and large crystal chandelier can accommodate 1000 spectators.

The first show – "the Magic flute" In..Mozart was shown in 1910. Nine years later, the theatre was purchased by the Polish authorities and quickly became one of the most important music scenes in the country. The first artistic Director was appointed Adam Dolzago, which position he held until 1922. One of the most prominent leaders was Zygmunt Latosinsky, whose work was interrupted by war. It was under him that the theatre was able to reach a level comparable to modern European scenes. The repertoire in the first two decades evolved from the works of Polish composers, as well as classic Italian and French Opera. In the prewar years at the Opera house hosted the premiere of the Opera "Sicilian Vespers" by Verdi, Puccini "Swallow" and "così fan tutte" by Mozart and others.
