Abstract
The combination of the unprecedented spatial resolution attainable with WFPC2 on board HST and of the large collecting area of the VLT makes it possible to study in detail the low mass pre-Main Sequence stars in galaxies other than our own. Here we present the results of our studies of two star forming environments in our closest galactic neighbor, the Large Magellanic Cloud: the region around Supernova 1987A and the double cluster NGC 1850.
