Step inside the Opera House on Dokøen and see one of the world's most advanced theatre houses up close. The tour takes you from the light-filled foyer, with its floating light sculptures by Olafur Eliasson and warm maple walls, to the auditorium and its gold-leaf ceiling.
Backstage, you learn how the building's six stage areas work, how thick concrete walls allow rehearsals and performances to run at the same time, and how the large orchestra pit fits up to 100 musicians. The guides also share stories from daily life at the theatre, including a few well-known theatre superstitions and some anecdotes from behind the scenes.
