In this special program, the Royal Opera House takes the audience behind the scenes as the illusions and mysteries of stage work are revealed and productions are brought to life by ROHM Technicians in a magical audio-visual journey.
The audience witnesses the stunning transformation of the Concert Hall into an Opera Theatre, as the box towers on each side nearest the stage turn inward and the proscenium framing the stage narrows. Meanwhile the front seating rows drop into garages hidden under the floor and the orchestra pit is revealed. The artistry involved in lighting, sound and image projection is explained and demonstrated. Participants gain an understanding of the state-of-the-art technologies of the ROHM as a world-class opera house, endowing them with a greater capacity to appreciate and enjoy future performances at the ROHM.
