Our Arts Council students had an exciting day taking part in backstage tours at the Royal Ballet and Opera. The 30 pupils were split into two groups: one began with a tour of the Production Workshop while the other explored the Design Workshop in the Coachman’s Café. After a short break for refreshments, the groups swapped activities, giving everyone the chance to experience both areas. The visit offered a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at stage production, set and costume design, and the creative processes that bring world-class performances to life. It was an inspiring and memorable experience for all the students.
