Last week, the Year 4 students had an exciting opportunity to take a backstage tour at the Royal Ballet and Opera’s High House Production. They ventured into areas usually hidden from the audience, discovering the intricacies of set design, costume creation, and the technical elements of a performance. The children observed how costumes are made, how lighting and sound are managed, and how props bring scenes to life. They even got to design their own costumes and meet industry professionals working behind the scenes. This experience deepened their appreciation for the dedication and teamwork required to bring a production to the stage.
