Theatre & The Arts

Helping the performing arts conceive, design & deliver a new perspective by incorporating video. XL enables Stage Directors & Producers to introduce yet another point of view for the audience – literally & figuratively. As Richard Eyre, acclaimed Artistic Director of Britain's Royal National Theatre from 1988-97, put it, “You turn the crystal in the light.” Striking and apparently simple choreography emerges on stage from behind-the-scenes technological complexity.

XL helps reinforce the six elements Aristotle thought necessary for theatre: Plot, Character, Idea, Language, Song, and Spectacle.
