New Fantasy Light Show In the Space Theater
The Don Harrington
Discovery Center’s Space Theater is proud to feature a new
Fantasy Light Show starting this February. Sponsored by Cumulus
Broadcasting and Rock 108, the Fantasy Light Show uses the Space
Theater’s Digistar 3 digital theater system to combine full-dome,
full-color computer animation with music from the greatest artists
in rock history. Featuring music from such rock luminaries as AC/DC,
Led Zeppelin, the Rolling Stones, the Beatles, Aerosmith, ZZ Top
and others, the Fantasy Light Show is an intense experience for
the eyes as well as the ears.
The Fantasy
Light Show is an original production that can only be seen at the
Discovery Center. The animation was produced by video producer and
graphic designer Chris Cost. Cost, who earned national awards for
computer animation, has been with the Discovery Center since early
2003 and has produced the visuals for many of the programs seen
in the Space Theater. “This show gives me the opportunity
to ‘WOW’ the audience with sights they would have not
be able to experience anywhere else,” says Cost.
In addition
to this new show, the Discovery Center will also be showing the
ever-popular Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon.”
The Fantasy
Light Show will begin on Friday, February 4 at 7:00 and 9:30 pm.
and will continue every Friday and Saturday night until April 23.
Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon” will be shown
during the same evenings at 8:15 pm.
Admission is
$7.75 per person. Combo tickets for both shows are available for
$12.00.

The museum is
a private, not-for-profit organization that makes science exciting,
relevant and interesting to all types of learners by providing interactive
exhibits and programs that actively engage children, adolescents
and their families. It fosters inquiring minds and nurtures the
individual genius that is within each of us.
