Original World-Premiere Lets Audiences Wear 3D Glasses, Feel the Wind in their Hair, and Play with Flying Bubbles Eagle Theatre's upcoming Original World-Premiere allows audiences to wear 3D glasses, feel the wind in their hair, and play with flying bubbles.

NOIR: The 3D/4D Semi-Cinematic Satirical Thriller seamlessly blends live action comedy with three-dimensional cinematography, using interactive in-theater 4D special effects to fully immersive the audience, including; wind, mist, scent, bubbles, seat sensors, surround sound, and projection mapping.

Creator/Co-Writer of NOIR, Eagle Theatre's Artistic Director Ted Wioncek III states, "We hope to create a form of entertainment so viscerally intoxicating that it gives your imagination permission to set sail and never return."

The first incarnation of NOIR, a twenty-minute proof of concept, debuted at the 1st Official Jersey Fringe Festival (2016), lauded immediate praise and attention from creatives and critics alike. Soon after, Eagle Theatre agreed to further develop NOIR into a full-length experiential magnum opus.

This fall, NOIR will receive a World Premiere at Eagle Theatre, marking the official launch of a new brand of live entertainment, Theme Park Theater.

Wioncek concludes, "We tell stories in hopes of forming a connection... a bond. Theme Park Theater strengthens that bond. Some say we're addicted to "pushing the envelope" for our audience. But, if you're not going to push the envelope for your audience, then for whom are you pushing?"

This program is made possible by funds from the New Jersey Department of State, Division of Travel and Tourism and The New Jersey State Council on the Arts.
