Hi. This is the third online free show introduction for you tired of 'Bangkok'.

First article [▶ [Report File] For you tired of 'Bangkok'… Gather free online performances]
And the second article [▶ [Report File] For you tired of 'Bangkok' 2… Gather more free online shows]
In Seoul, Seoul Arts Center, Sejong Center for the Performing Arts, Gyeonggi Arts Center, National Theater, National Gugak Center, Seoul Town Hall, Korean Symphony, KBS Symphony Orchestra, Berlin Philharmonic, New York Philharmonic, Metropolitan Opera, Wien Staatsoper, Korea National University of Arts, etc. We introduced online performance content, and as corona 19 is prolonged, groups joining free online performance services are increasing every day. I'm not sure how long this series will continue, but I'm trying to do as much as I can.

Among the domestic performances, the ballet 'Chunhyang', unveiled by the Universal Ballet, first catches the eye. You can watch for free until April 5th at [▶ Universal Ballet YouTube Channel]. Are you curious about how to do ballet with 'Chunhyang'? Once you see it, you know. You can feel the charm of creative ballet when you see this springy, bold piece.

The Seoul Arts Center, introduced in the first article, expanded the period and repertoire of 'Limited Screenings'. It is said that more than 150,000 people watched online streaming within a week. Among the repertoires that have been expanded are popular works such as the musical 'Smiling Boy', 'Shim Cheong' and 'Giselle'.
Let's go abroad now. The British National Theater, famous for its NT video, is a performance video brand that is screened at the theater. Every Thursday at 7pm (4am on Friday in Korean time), every show was performed. [▶ UK National Theater YouTube channel] The free unpacking service will start on April 2. It is released for free for one week per flight.

The first work is a play directed by Nicholas Hitener, `` One Man and Two Masters, '' a comedy in West End in 2011 and Broadway in 2012. Bodyguard Francis, who has two owners at the same time, struggles between two people who should never meet each other. The starring actor James Cordon is the star of the American talk show starring BTS. James Cordon won the 2012 Tony Award for Best Actor. It was also screened at the Korean National Theater for a fee in February. It seems that the English subtitles will be provided in the pre-screening video as the preliminary video provides the English subtitles.
'Solar Circus' also responded to the spread of Corona 19 and recently opened an online performance video service called [▶ Cirqueconnect]. Although all the 'Circus of the Sun' venues are closed, the audience can easily sit at home and enjoy the 'Sun's Circus' performance and stories behind the scenes. On the 27th, a 1-hour special video featuring highlights of the main performance of the Circus of the Sun was first released.

On the UK-based classical music website [▶ BachTrack], you can also choose to play online for free. If you enter 'Streamed Events' or 'On Demand' from the VIdeo menu, you will be able to find and collect online performance content from major venues around the world. You can also browse by opera, classical concert, and dance genre. There are so many things to see that it is a mask. Bach Track not only shows live performances, but also various videos and news from the performance industry.

Lastly, we will return to Korea again and deliver the news of the Gala Concert. 'Bangsuk Classic: What do you do when you play?' Is an online relay concert started by musicians and private agency Bomb Art Project, which I introduced in the first article of this series. This gala concert is free, but the audience will also receive voluntary donations.

"In a reality where nothing can be done, it was best to do what the artists and planners could do without letting go of what they did. And the role of artists and art is to sympathize with the audience, and to give comfort and healing to the members of society. We believe in providing moments.

Small space, I started out in my room, and I'm grateful to the artists who participated in the classics of the room after more than a month, but they are also one of the freelancers who lost their income because the stage disappeared. And so are the planners and staff who are making their stage together ... ..

I would like to remind the freelance artists and planners that the disappearance of the stage is a dark reality. And I hope the artists will once again feel how precious a chance it is to meet the audience and to be a performance stage. "
You can watch the Classic Gala Concert in Bangsuk from 6pm on Tuesday, March 31st through [▶ Naver V Live] or [▶ YouTube Channel].

In fact, the supply and consumption of online performance content has also increased significantly in recent years, but most have nothing to do with generating revenue. The paid performance streaming service has operated only a handful of famous groups with fans all over the world, such as the Metropolitan Opera or the Berliner Philharmoniker. These days, online concerts are leading these online organizations, and these public organizations are relatively stable in finance. They are responding to the corona era by increasing free online performance services for public service and publicity.

On the other hand, the majority of artists and performers in the offline industry, where offline performances were cut off, are going through a difficult period that is even endangered. With the spread of Corona 19, which has closed the venue, it seems that the change in consumption patterns of the performances will be much faster, but even the toughest performing arts workers faced the difficult task of responding to the new trend of changing the consumption patterns of performances. In the 8th news report I gave on the weekend, I also mentioned that government support is needed to close the gap between rich and poor.

See you again in the next post.
