The museum is dedicated to dance, music and theatre.

The museum presents a storyline rather than following a chronological order.

There is a collection of 60,000 objects, including stage designs, hand written song texts and premiere[clarification needed] pieces.

[1] There are at least 6,000 musical instruments[2] as well as puppets, marionettes and costumes.

[3] Since its reopening in 2017 the museum has a broad emphasis on interactive activities: for example there is a gestrument, an aggregation between gesture and instrument – visitors can make music by moving their bodies.
