Som första scen i Sverige presenterar Kungliga Operan ett verk skrivet och framfört på nordsamiska. Jordens hjärta, Eatnama váibmu, bygger på den samiska skapelsemyten med ett aktuellt tema om kampen mellan ont och gott, och att leva i samspel med naturen. Publiken kommer att möta en visuell nytolkning av den samiska traditionen och en operaupplevelse med både sjungande spöken, stor barnkör och inslag av jojk.

En föreläsning om hur judiska entreprenörer påverkade modebranschens snabba tillväxt. Med sina internationella kontakter bidrog judiska företagare till att sprida ny teknik och moderna försäljningssätt. En viktig men ofta förbisedd del av historien är också de många kvinnor som verkade som judiska arbetare och företagare från 1800-talets mitt.

Gamla stan

I Sveriges enda bevarade skrålokal har tiden stannat runt året 1930. Allt sedan medeltiden hade vindragarna transporterat vinfat i staden. I skrålokalen i Gamla stan kan du höra om vindragarnas redskap, livsöden och julfirande. Julafton piggades upp med enrisklädda golv och något gott så att man inte ”gick ut med julen”.
