About
快速信息: Step inside and hear the hush of candlelit balconies with painted backdrops that still move thanks to original stage machinery, giving performances a tactile, almost magical atmosphere. Hundreds of handcrafted props and ingenious stage tricks remain in place, and period instruments are used in some shows so the sound feels startlingly authentic.
亮点: Stepping inside feels like slipping back over 250 years, when candlelight pooled on hand-painted clouds and gilded boxes while the scent of beeswax and old wood filled the air. An original rope-and-pulley stage machinery still moves perspective flats during demonstrations, and staff keep a quirky backstage habit: before every season a stagehand taps the main flyline three times for luck.
Insider tips
- Arrive at least 10 minutes before your scheduled tour, small groups leave promptly and latecomers may miss the start.
- Wear comfortable shoes and be cautious on narrow, steep wooden staircases and low headroom backstage.
- Photography is allowed in some areas but often restricted during stage demonstrations, so ask the guide before using flash.
- For the best photos of painted backdrops stand on the upper gallery, and position near the side wings for clearer views of stage machinery during demos.
