XI’an - Song and dance show about Terra Cotta Warriors
Print Edition
The famous Terra Cotta Warriors of the Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC) will be turned into a daily song and dance extravaganza in Xi’an, Shaanxi Province.
Nederlander Worldwide Entertainment on Wednesday agreed to manage and produce a life show in a specially built US$65 million theater to celebrate the famous army. It’s a high-profile step for America’s live theater giant into the world’s most promising consumer market.
Performances are expected to begin next spring.
Called “The Legend of Emperor Qin,” the 70-minute show will feature music and dance in a high-tech 2,000-seat theater in the complex that has grown around the ongoing excavation.
Organizers hope to increase performances to two per day and, later, tour a stripped-down version around the world.
The show will use a 600-square-meter LED screen, one of the largest in China. The show is the brain child of some members of the creative team behind the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
