Royal Ballet and OperaThe making of a masquerade 🎠For A Masked Ball, our specialist workshops spent three months creating 75 masks for The Royal Opera Chorus. Beginning with a clay sculpture, the masks are moulded and finished by hand. The design must also work for the performers, remaining light enough to wear while allowing them to see and sing freely on stage. 📅 See Philipp Stölzl's new production of A Masked Ball on our Main Stage from 30 November. #TheRoyalOpera #AMaskedBall #Verdi #Opera #RoyalBalletAndOpera
