YDO for educators - Deutsche Oper Berlin
We develop offers with teachers, educators, trainee teachers and social workers.
Theatre is a place of exchange and encounter. The exchange with you as our most important partners is a central component of our work: What does school need, what does theatre need? Which forms of mediation do you need in your lessons, which plays are suitable for your pupils? And how can music and theatre be integrated into everyday school life as aesthetic and pedagogical design principles?
Would you like to attend one of our performances with a group or school class? Here you will find an overview of all works with age recommendations.

How about a trip to the opera with your team or colleagues? We will organise your opera visit, including an introduction or workshop beforehand, as a special experience alongside your everyday work. For selected performances, you pay only € 20 per teacher or educator for admission. Dates can be arranged individually.
How can music and opera be integrated into everyday school and nursery life? What teaching formats are suitable for different contexts and age groups? In our training courses for teachers and educators, we engage in dialogue with you and provide insights into our methods of music theatre education.
