GSO4SCHOOL Workshop

This workshop will provide an overall view of the GSO4SCHOOL project as well as a collaborative arena in which the scientific theme of the 2021 Global Science Opera (GSO) production will be developed as an integral and inter-related foundation of the opera’s artistic processes and expressions. During the workshop, participants will alternate between plenary and break-out sessions. Plenary sessions will be dedicated to an overall plan and mutual presentations of what emerged in the break-out sessions. Break-out sessions (science, drama, music) will be dedicated to the development of content for the opera. That content will provide the main story-line, scientific perspectives and musical elements for the 2021 production. Organised by the GSO4SCHOOL Partnership.
