Opera out of the Opera, is an audience development project for youngsters from 16 to 30 y.o., that will last from September 2018 to April 2020. It is carried out with funding from the Creative Europe Programme. The project focuses on audience development, bringing opera out of the opera theatres, spreading its knowledge and developing new public (young people). It combines in an innovative way live electronics, virtual environments, animated backgrounds with traditional representations and performances, with the aim of creating unexpensive and flexible representations that can easily be transported and replicable, realizing real-time animations and subtitles. Performances are taking place in unusual locations such as aiports, beaches, shopping malls and palaces. A modern and eye-catching app for smartphones ensures the engagement of the live and remote audience during the performances through voting and other interactive features. Conservatorio Santa Cecilia in Rome is the project coordinator collaborating with the following project partners: Mozarteum Salzburg, Petit Opera du Monde-Arts On (Athens), Opera da Camera de Navarra (Pamplona) and the European Association of Conservatoires AEC.
