The Lowry’s 1,700-seat Lyric theatre is set to be taken over by a feast of light, sound, colour and technology.
Before select theatre performances, audiences will experience IRIS—a unique digital art installation, created using the latest in robotic and laser technology. This technology is manipulated to form a mass of light that creates moving shapes out of the darkness.
The performing light sculpture is by one of Europe’s pioneers of digital art, Marshmallow Laser Feast—a London-based creative studio.
IRIS is a Week 53 commission by The Lowry, and there will be free public viewings over the weekend of May 27 and 28.
