What a brilliant week we had for our 3 Skills Sharing Workshops last week! We partnered again with Southwark Playhouse to offer drama and music practitioners a workshop on opera and our process of delivering opera workshops in primary schools and how their skills may be transferable to working in opera, while also partnering with Opera Holland Park to offer a workshop to opera singers in facilitating workshops for young people and how their opera skills can be used in this area. The workshops were intended to be a fun and useful experience in sharing skills and developing artists’ skillsets as well as enabling us to meet new practitioners to work with in the future.
A huge thank you to partners Southwark Playhouse and Opera Holland Park, funding from Arts Council England and all the brilliant practitioners who took part. Thank you so much for sharing your ideas, silly games, tips and tricks for working with young people and introducing them to opera in a fun accessible way! We had so much fun, enjoyed sharing our ideas and learning from so many of your brilliant ideas. Not to mention some excellent and very silly games…!
