Just wonder how visitors could snap up tickets for ballet, orchestra, circus etc in Moscow. Apart from buying directly from box office, is there any other viable, "safe" and afforable option? Are scalpers reliable?

P.S I am a Circus fans

There are plenty of stalls selling theatre tickets, etc, around the city. I've always just gone to the box office though - seems like the easiest option. Circus tickets you can buy half an hour before a show. I don't think they ever get full houses.

It is for museums. The price for ballet, circus etc. is the same as for Russians.
You may buy tickets to Bolshoi theatre on the Internet and get them before the performance.
There are also agencies like www.parter.ru which provide tickets to the main entertainments.
If you want to have better seats in the Circus try to buy the tickets in advance. The ticket office is inside the Circus.
