Lucent Dossier EXPERIENCE last held a downtown Los Angeles residency at the Edison in 2008 and 2009. Blurring the boundaries of fantasy and reality, the troupe of "fire dancers, aerial silk performers, belly dancers, contortionists, burlesque girls and daring 'actors'...some of whom hang from the rafters inside the bar and mingle with the patrons" (Los Angeles Times, 7/14/08) truly birthed a new form of interactive performance that creatively breaks down the fourth wall between performer and audiences. So many nightclubs have endeavored to emulate the formula but haven't captured the experience quite like Lucent.

Earlier this year, Lucent Dossier EXPERIENCE debuted a new 3D Live, augmented reality performance to a massive Coachella crowd with closing sets at the Sahara Tent on both Friday's (April 15 & 22) of the two-weekend-long event to high-acclaim. Lucent Dossier EXPERIENCE continued with their Lightning in a Bottle extravaganza--a combination of new performances and original ones, with only a few seen at this year's Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, returning to the original 2D format. The collective also brought their festival show to Hollywood's Avalon nightclub.
