THE ART OF RESILIENCE

Being an institution with a long history is both an honour and a responsibility. That is why we want to embrace and learn from the past, looking for the keys to the future where the Theatre will remain the ‘Liceu for everyone’. We want to make a Liceu with an economic balance and a quality artistic programme that also includes educational and social projects that will help us to create the audience of tomorrow. The result of this is our recent commitment to new challenges, such as the new ‘Opera Prima’ line of community creation and the new family show La torre dels somnis, by Lluís Danés, which will premiere this season. We also maintain our desire to consolidate the Under35 Community, a successful project that connects the operatic genre with the younger members of society. Another tool that the Liceu has recently developed to bring opera closer to the public is LICEU+, the theatre’s audiovisual platform that offers content to complement the programme. This tool also includes the digital subscription LICEU+LIVE, which allows subscribers to see titles from the season in an outstanding viewing experience, either live or in a special edited version.

Reaping the fruits of our 175th anniversary, we look forward to welcoming you to this new season. We continue in this stage of growth and maturation on a path towards uniqueness and excellence thanks to the subscribers, patrons, benefactors, public administrations, workers and the general public who make it possible.

And we will continue to move forward with this resilience intrinsic to the Liceu’s history: with every stumble comes a new opportunity to rise again with strength and ambition to achieve what we want to be. Let’s move forward!
