#Beyond the Stage - Secondary Music & Theatre Workshops

Victorian Opera

#Beyond
Beyond the Stage is a dynamic and immersive range of free education workshops and performances designed to ignite your students’ curiosity about the captivating world of opera and theatre.

Explore the process of commissioning a new work for the mainstage, explore the science of theatre technology with our light and sound workshops, or attend a pre-show Q & A and grill those in non-performing roles about their work in bringing a production to stage.

Beyond the Stage is our offering in the Victorian Challenge and Enrichment Series which is free to government schools. Non-government schools pay a low fee of $1 per student for workshops and $25 for shows.
