Inspired by Giacomo Puccini’s (1858-1924) timeless opera Madama Butterfly, the Learning & Participation department creates a multi-dimensional learning and creating workshop. The goal of the workshop is for children to discover the work, and drawing on elements from its musical themes and Japanese aesthetic, to portray its story through the stop motion animation technique.
Using props from the GNO props storage facility, participants will propose their own scenographic approach to the work, creating images inspired by the drama’s characters, landscapes, colours and musicality. The results of this dialogue of children with the opera world will be captured in film, introducing us a new version of Madama Butterfly.
The workshop is for children aged from 8 to 12 years.
Planning/ Implementation: Christina Spanou (visual artist / educator)
Implementation schedule: 4, 11, 18 October 2020 (10.30-13.30)
