Didn’t get to see much of the inside as it was closed on the weekend. But there is an outside garden where you can walk. I feel like this place has so much more potential but is not being maintained wellVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Verg good large collection of stuffed mammals and birds on display. Interactive displays are all broken and run down. Kids loved it still. Dec2019, Cost R40/adult R20/child
Opera is one of the most important elements of the Italian cultural heritage, and probably the most important Italian cultural assets in South Africa. This style of performance, born in Italy over four hundred years ago, has become so widespread and deeply rooted in the world that it is regarded as the highest and most complex expression within musical theatre. The Teatro dell’Opera di Roma, born in 1880, over the centuries, was able to bring together internationally renowned set and costume designers, whose works form a gigantic iconographic heritage through artistic and highly relevant documents. The Historical Archives preserves this precious collection of more than 11.000 sketches and 90.000 costumes, 10.000 pictures, 10.000 playbills, press-reviews since 1911, audios since 1964 and videos since 1984. The exhibition was opened on March 28th with a special performance by opera students of the Tshwane University of Pretoria. The display is a selection of 49 sketches and 14 costumes, each piece related to a famous opera title, selected essays designed by theatrical artists ranging from 1912 to the present day, part of the golden age of opera. This exhibition is a tribute to Opera, a journey through the masterpieces and the most famous characters of the lyrical repertoire performed at the Teatro dell’Opera in the last century, from Barbiere di Siviglia to Aida, Tosca, Madama Butterfly, La Traviata, Andrea Chénier, Don Pasquale, Cavalleria Rusticana and many others. The exhibition will be open to the public until April 30th. #Opera #Italian #Teatro #Exhibition #Pretoria #Tshwane #WSPianos
The place was very nice and clean, it was super hot though, didn't have aircon at where we had booked. Also, the venue was not prepared. When we arrived there we had to start by prepping the event room ourselves. I honestly expected the room to be prepared forehand but i guess that's not how tgey do things. But it was great nonetheless
It wonderful for taking out kids on weekends
It's beautiful and insightful, creepy mummy display but I loved it. The place was not cleaned though after an event -I'm assuming . Curtains for deco were not put down which made it hard to see things up on some of the walls.
It is not looked after, the roof is worse
The place wasn't packed so it was easy for us to do self tour for our pre-school learnersVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Worth a visit. Parking at the back in the side street.
The museum is in a very modern building and is well organised. There are not so many exhibits but what they have is good. The guides are free and worth having, mine was friendly and knowledgeable.
