Not only the stage but also the light and some decorations will change with the topic.
So there are many people go there to see the opera show and admire the stage.

We can always change our ways about things like not going to see the opera in the ordinary theater.
In a creative way, we should always be curious about our world in order to think more.
Be different and be creative.

We used to see lots of famous paintings in our life.
But those really famous paintings is always hanging on the museum or we can see it on the internet.
Why those paintings famous is because it made people feel touch.
After 30 or 50 years, we can still remember the feeling that the painting gave you.

But painting is just painting.
It's not alive and we can't touch it.
