Theater Combines Stereo Projection with Live Performance

Monday, September 26, 2005



Birmingham Stage Company has combined stereoscopic projection technology familiar from Disney rides and Hitchcock's "The Birds" with live stage performance.

"Audiences will see portraits of Henry VIII and Elizabeth I hover above their heads and find themselves dodging cannon-balls and pieces of wood when a ship of the Spanish Armada is struck. The objects come right at the audience, fooling the brain into believing they are real. At the trial in Darlington last week children were excitedly reaching out to grab them."
