2. OPERATION

It is unknown how the ballet.net.dancer I.S. and the 
ballet.net.composer B.Z. are going to enter The Bolshoi Theatre on 
that day, but they are preparing two different options/plans to do it. 
Both options are illegal.

Option N.1: James Bond 
- to buy the tickets for The Tzars Bride and enter the main door & to 
dance at the Bolshoi's toilet during the break.

Option N.2: art terrorism 
- to enter The Bolshoi Theatre via small window in the left wing of 
the building and to perform the ballet.net action in the cellar.

This illegal action is carefully studied as an invasion. Watches are 
synchronized and all the details are prepared. Artists are going to 
use hi-tech mobile and wireless equipment for invasion and live 
transmitting (i.e. portable computers, mini digital cameras, night-
vision systems, mini discs, MP3 audio systems, mobile WAP 
telephones etc).

time CET - Central European Time; 12:00 New York time) and will 
last exactly 15 minutes (until 20:15 GMT+3 local Moscow time). It
