Revision as of 04:32, 11 November 2015
Perestroika is a Russian owned cabaret club in the Hove Beach, Broker in Grand Theft Auto IV, once owned by the late Mikhail Faustin.
Description
The exterior of Perestroika in GTA IV.
The comedy acts there are much poorer in humor than those of Split Sides Comedy Club, though there are some interesting acts. Like the Split Sides, Niko Bellic can watch shows in the club on his own, on a date, or as an activity with a friend.
"Perestroika" ("Перестройка") means "restructuring" when translated to Russian. Perestroika is also a term commonly used internationally when referring to political and economic reforms in the Soviet Union during the 1980s that resulted in its collapse.
Design
The interior of Perestroika.
The club's interior includes various rooms that serve several purposes in-game. The main feature of the club is its dining area, bar and open space (presumably used as a dance floor) fronted by a stage, where the club's acts are performed. The backstage of the club is accessible from a door to the left of the stage, connecting to the performer's dressing room, a QUB3D video arcade game, and a backlot of the club which leads up to the club's roof, where a hidden gun can be found. A cloakroom is also included between the main entrance and the main room of the club.
Perestroika's shows are triggered from within the club itself; the player must first enter the club and locate the marked checkpoint to the right, where the player is intended to be seated.
The club's exterior design is largely based on the Millenium Atlantic Oceana in Brooklyn. (see below).
Security
At night, the club is guarded by a bunch of Russian mafia members who will attack if provoked, in and outside the club, if you pull out a gun after you have made the gang members attack you, they will pull out their guns and start shooting at you. The club is also guarded by two gangsters who search guests before they enter (except the player). Depending on how far in the game the player has got, the guards will react in one of two ways. If the player hasn't completed The Master and the Molotov mission, the guards will welcome them. However after this mission is completed, the guards will warn you to stay away and then attack the player.
If, however, accompanied by a friend (whilst the player is doing an activity for his friend), the guard will let them in, despite the mission completion of The Master And The Molotov. If you take Roman there after the mission Crime & Punishment, he may occasionally feel uncomfortable and says it must be where Faustin hangs out when he isn't holding hostages in his basement and shooting them. After completing The Master and the Molotov, he tells Niko it's a shame Faustin is dead because the place is going to pot.
After Faustin's death, it's assumed that Kenny Petrovic took over the club, because it continues to be frequented and guarded by the Russian Mafia when all known leaders are dead.
Acts
Main article: Acts at Perestroika
Perestroika hosts a total of four different acts, of which two will be feature each time a player comes to watch its show. The sequence of acts are repeated after six visits. While the club still accessible in The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony, the player is unable to watch any act.
