The gold and the scarlet of the auditorium at the Royal Opera House are familiar enough, but this film takes a unique look at the very different world that lies behind those great plush curtains. Backstage we see something of the ingenuity, imagination and sheer hard work that enables a staff of more than 1,000 to stage some 250 performances of opera and ballet throughout the year in what is still an antiquated Victorian theatre.
Given complete freedom to film both at rehearsals and on stage during performances and all over the theatre, from dressing rooms to prop stores, BBC cameras followed the various stages of a dozen productions. There's a first night of Othello. Sir Frederick Ashton rehearses with Margot Fonteyn. Anthony Dowell and Merle Park dance in Romeo and Juliet. The Marriage of Figaro, Peter Grimes and The Sleeping Beauty are all in rehearsal. We see the involvement of stagehands, costume-makers, designers, singers and dancers and hear from them what it is like to work in one of the world's greatest opera houses.

The second of ten films on ways of improving race relations. Crosstalk
How many people in teaching, social work, personnel departments, banks and hospitals, etc, are left with a sense of frustration or failure when dealing with Asians and West Indians as parents, clients or job candidates? The way English is used, as well as differences of culture, can make for misunderstandings. If not recognised as such, these can lead to irritation, or can reinforce prejudiced attitudes on both sides. This film analyses some of the commonest of these communication difficulties.
