Presentation
Opera out of the Opera (OooO) is a project specifically designed to facilitate the “generational” transfer in the Opera field. Opera should be considered an intangible cultural heritage with the older transmitting the art to the younger in a process of audience development. To do so, we need to act with new approach and paradigm, analyzing why opera is now far from young generations.
- lack of knowledge (Opera calls for a knowledge base)
Opera out of Opera is an innovative project that has the general objective of introducing younger generation to Opera world and reach them outside theatres and concert halls. To do so, we plan to accomplish a series of specific actions, strictly related to the barriers listed above: - reduce Opera logistic and economic impact with massive use of digital technol. – develop, using the most recent digital devices, an interactive real time system in order to involve and engage the audience – create a set of activities to further improve a general audience development strategy – experiment an easy replicable Opera live event to outreach audience in places where they would not expect to see an Opera - develop a replicable digital APP to help not expert audience have a basic understanding of Opera scenes and possibly discover more if interested – communicate that Opera is an intangible and eternal Cultural Heritage UNESCO (Infokit 2011), regardless historical set.
Opera out of Opera is co-funded by the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union.
