Pyongyang Grand Theatre
Cinema, theatre and opera trips are possible (although rare), and while films, operas or plays aren't likely to be of a particularly gripping order, again, it's the experience that is interesting. Spectacles in the main theatres vary little from one to the other. Musical 'classics' such as The Flower Girl and A Daughter of the Party are in constant rotation.

Pyongyang Circus
The nature of visiting North Korea is that the most mundane everyday things become instantly fascinating. Given that contact with locals is kept to a minimum, while in Pyongyang you should take advantage of the relatively wide choice of evening entertainment to see how locals like to relax. Of course, what you will and won't be able to do depends on your guides, and so let them know any requests as early on as possible, and of course, try to stay in their good books.
The Pyongyang Circus gets glowing reviews from visitors. It is mainly a human circus, and you may hear vicious rumours that during the famine many of the animals ended up on plates.
