This popular program is linked to the Tokyo Bunka Kaikan Opera BOX, giving kids the challenge to create a full-scale opera.
Let’s create props and ornaments for an opera stage, joining the “Crafts Making” workshop! Which will be an exciting opportunity to experience an important process for set designing.
Not only will the participants have a chance to have their craftworks appear on the Tokyo Bunka Kaikan Opera BOX stage, they will also see the dress rehearsal, getting involved in the stage creation process.
