Tomb Raider 2 Hints
How do I get back to the two switches?
1 of 9: You can't go back the way you came.
2 of 9: There's a locked door on the second-highest level of the opera house.
3 of 9: You'll find the key after exploring the dressing room a bit.
4 of 9: You can find the dressing room through some windows inside the opera house.
5 of 9: In particular, look for a series of platforms in a shaft on the left side of the opera house (as facing the stage). One of these "platforms" is a hallway that will take you to the windows.
6 of 9: Shoot out the windows, and then drop down into the dressing room after hanging off the floor above the dressing room -- hang before dropping so you don't have as far to fall.
7 of 9: You will find the Ornate Key after navigating the area with a series of fans.
8 of 9: Use the Ornate Key on the lock next to the door, and jump through that door. This will take you back to the ladder that leads up to the area with the two switches.
9 of 9: You may need to push a button in this area to re-open the gate above the ladder in order to climb out of this area.
