SEIZE the rare chance to visit one of the best equipped and most hi-tech theatre backstages in Asia.
Till June 30, the Hongkong Cultural Centre is conducting daily tours of the HKCC complex.
The highlight is a backstage tour of the grand theatre, where visitors will be shown the theatre's advanced technical equipment and facilities.
This is an ideal opportunity for those interested in drama, whether for recreation or for study, to see what it is like ''behind the scenes''. Theatre enthusiasts will enjoy a privileged glimpse of the backstage area, normally closed to outsiders, which covers the side stage, rear stage as well as the workshop and dressing rooms.
The HKCC's advanced stage technology, with its various special installations and facilities, will be demonstrated.
These include the steel shutter separating the side stage and the main stage, the control room for sound and lighting, and the electrically-operated orchestral pit for 110 musicians.
