How many people work in an opera house?
For an opera production, one must count the opera cast, including the opera chorus, the opera orchestra and the set and lighting crew involved in the performance. In addition, consider the costumes, the makeup, the sets -- which must be designed, constructed and painted (true, too, for props), the sound system, the back-stage crews, the ticket sellers and takers, the ushers, and the administrative staff. Finally, there are volunteers who help raise contributions, security who protect the opera's assets, cleaning staff who pick up, clean, sweep and mop -- even the stage during performances, and so forth.
