Guided tours
You can book a guided tour for your class together with your visit, to get a unique insight behind the scenes.
Contact guidning@opera.se for more information and bookings.
Follow a performance
Would you and your class like to follow one of our productions close up? First our theatre pedagogue can come to your school for a 1 hour classroom workshop, then you all will visit us here at the Göteborg Opera to see the house – and maybe peek in at a rehearsal – then have a workshop about what the performance is about. At the third meeting, we’ll all go to see the performance.
Each contact can be adapted depending on which times suit, and what is happening in the house. If this sounds exciting to you, contact our theatre pedagogue David Oest on david.oest@opera.se and he will be happy to let you know more. Please note that the number of workshops available are limited. First come, first served!
