Behind the scenes of the theatre.

On Monday we went to visit Kortrijk theatre behind the scenes. This was very intersting. We visited places where the public never comes. A guide told us all about the history of the theatre and explained what happens before a performance, concert or musical can start. Next week we will go back to see a theatre performance. The theatre is near to the hotel where your teachers will stay, so we also went there to have a look. Ann , Freddy and their pupils. Liselotte is checking the dressing-rooms.

The ceiling is real pretty.

The guide told us about security and Smoke Detectors. The stairs are nice. There were 2 stairwells. One for the rich and one for the poor people. Now we all use the same . We went all the way up where the spotlights, scenery and curtains are attached to strong cables.

This was very high and above the stage.

Here we are in the control room. A man controls light and sound during a performance.

Are you ready for some drinks in the theatre bar?

We walked to theatre. This is also the way from the hotel to our school.

Out of the theatre windows we saw the Ibis hotel.

We checked the hotel for you!
