Summary:	Norway has finally achieved its longstanding ambition to build a new opera house, with the result that it now boasts a dazzling white fjord side edifice that is the pride of the nation. In this video we follow the protracted evolution of Oslo's new Opera House, with its many tortuous political, architectural, constructional and artistic complications, from the decision to build right through to the opening ceremony in April 2008. We also attend rehearsals of the opera Around the World in 80 Days and of newly composed ballets, and go backstage to watch rehearsals and a performance of that well-loved ballet Sleeping Beauty, which was staged in the opening season.
