Discovery Workshops
Our new Discovery Workshops are a series of one-off events that are designed to give members of our local community the opportunity to “come-and-try” a participatory session for a day.
Taking place at Garsington Studios, there will be something for everyone. From performance, to stage management and video production, these sessions will give a variety of options to have a go and discover the world of opera!
Introduction to Production Arts
Are you intrigued by lighting and stage management? Do you love the world of wardrobe or want to be a make-up artist? Or perhaps you’d rather run the show from backstage? This Introduction to Production Arts is the perfect taster session for young people wanting to find out more about career opportunities behind-the-scenes.
There are five different backstage areas to choose from:
- Lighting
- Props
- Stage crewing & Stage Management
- Wardrobe
- Wigs, Hair & Make-up
At the beginning of the day, you will select three workshops to attend for the morning. In the afternoon, you will choose one of these three workshops to focus on, delving deeper into your chosen subject for the rest of the day.
Participants should bring a packed lunch with them.
