Since opera and dance are closely linked, it was only natural for the Opera Royal de Wallonie-Liège to give its backing to the Mosa Ballet School. Consequently, the two institutions signed an agreement making them veritable artistic, educational and operational partners over the long term, with the shared goal of teaching and disseminating culture to the widest audience possible and through many different channels. This collaboration was conveyed by the presence of Mosa Ballet School pupils as extras in I Lombardi alla Prima Crociata during the 2022-2023 season, in Falstaff and in the ballet Romeo & Juliet in March 2024.

The Mosa Ballet School is a newcomer to the cultural and educational landscape of the Liège region and opened its doors in 2022 in Liège with approximately one hundred students, from Belgium and abroad. This atypical establishment came into being on the initiative of two dance enthusiasts who wished to create a school that would offer young dancers between 12 and 18 years the possibility of training at the highest level for this demanding and delicate art.

This season will once again see these young talents participate as extras or dancers in opera performances.
