The unique production incorporates a mature twist to the old tale known worldwide so well. Each dance movement by the Princess, played by world-renowned prima ballerina Diana Vishneva and international ballet school founder Mi Deng, is met with eight supporting dancers, as well as larger-than-life demons and angels, mimicking her moves. The demons and angels were imagined and visualized by Tobias Gremmler, a famed digital artist who has developed design solutions for Apple, Samsung, Swarovski, and Sony in addition to working with Bjork. The virtual characters brought to life move simultaneously with the Princess, as 14 motion sensors sewn into the ornate costume instantly simulate her movements.
“Sleeping Beauty Dreams brings the dream realm to life. This is a theatrical experience unlike anything else you can see right now,” says Gremmler. “The incorporation of real-time data and revolutionary technology allow us to create digital avatars – also known as the demons and angels - that mimic Sleeping Beauty in her dreamscape. We believe this immersive experience for the audience is the future of performing arts.”
4U2C, a creative design studio based in Montréal Canada, takes its tech team to translate Tobias Gremmler’s creative vision into world-class experiences for fans. 4U2C’s artists have been roaming the globe turning what’s visceral into moments of beauty that build human connection. They push for great work through what they do, design and video imagery, and by living and breathing the spirit of collaboration.
Performing alongside Vishneva is an international dance star, Marijn Rademaker, who will play the role of the Prince in New York, Chicago, and Boston. Performing alongside Deng is dancer Denis Savin, who will play the role of the Prince in Atlanta, Dallas, and Houston/Sugar Land.
Audiences will be physically and emotionally moved by the vibrating beats of electronic music by famed EDM pioneer, NOISIA’s Thijs de Vlieger, who wrote the original score. His music has been featured in Hollywood blockbusters and he has worked with some of the world’s biggest artists including Skrillex and deadmau5.
Industry tastemakers joining the cast and crew include the choreographer and creative director Edward Clug, and costume designer Jorge Muskus. A team of eight permanent crew members is responsible for managing the technology required to bring the production to life. The production was created for the stage by Rem Hass.
