16 November 2021
"Frida: Immersive Dream" is set to launch in Toronto soon, but no other details have been released. A website for the program is already online, and social media advertisements are being circulated.
Lighthouse Immersive and the group of producers behind Immersive Van Gogh, Immersive Klimt, and Immersive Nutcracker, which opens this week, are behind the production.
"As you stroll through the Lighthouse Immersive gallery, you will see the Mexico-born artist’s work come to life on a grand scale and discover the people, events, and obstacles that made her the extraordinary woman she was. The mesmerizing, large-scale projections, accompanied by a ravishing musical score, will sweep you up as you encounter Frida as never before." they promise in the event website.
"Kahlo’s art has been described as magic realism – blending realistic depictions of her life with fantastical elements to reflect her inner thoughts and struggles. Using state-of-the-art technology, the 360-degree experience invites you to step inside the colorful and vibrant world of Frida Kahlo as never before with Frida: Immersive Dream."
The firm has taken over many floors of the abandoned Toronto Star printing mill at 1 Yonge and repurposed them into an arts theater for digital projection shows, magic shows, and dance acts using projections.
