19 Mar. 2008

The unprecedented unification of classical and extreme culture will take place in the capital of Norway, Oslo. The building of the National Opera Theatre will be opened there. The special feature is that the main architect decided to place a skate park on its roof.

The theatre is situated on the shore of Oslo-Fiord, and the roof is constructed in such a way that it is possible to picnic and to skate on its surface and even to dive from it into water. The opening of the opera-skate-complex is planned for April 12.
