The exceptionally successful opera production for the whole family The Magic Pillows returns to the Stavros Niarchos Hall to give new life to the dreams of children and grown-ups. On the occasion of the GNO’s enchanting production, once again 10 children aged between 8 and 11 will have the unique chance to get initiated into the magical world of opera, living the singular experience of sleeping over in the Greek National Opera, at the SNFCC, on 12 and 13 November. Backstage exploration, music-motor workshops, getting to know the characters of the work, disguises into heroes inspired by the show, thematic dinner and breakfast accompanied by a small musical ensemble, and story-telling will only be some of the activities, which the children that will spend a night at the Opera will have the chance to enjoy.

Age groups: 8 to 11

Planning / Implementation: Eugene Trivizas & GNO Learning & Participation Department

Dates: 12 & 13 November
