Wilmington, NC (WECT) – Thalian Hall organized a community day on Saturday.
The staff welcomed people to see behind the scenes of the theater.
The CEO of Thalian Hall, Shane Fernando, made a presentation of the one and only Roll Operational Thunder in the country.
Thunder is the way theaters recreate the sound of a thunderstorm for performance.
Fernando says they are proud to share the secrets of the arts.
“It’s so exciting, especially so many young people who are there to discover theater in a new and old technology. And how the magic theater comes to life and lets them take the look behind the curtain, ”explains Fernando.
Fernando says that their tickets will be on sale for their next season which is starting in October and will take place until June next year.
Fernando shares the community can expect major changes in the theater, such as an immersive dome experience built in their ballroom in 2026.
“Hubblo is an immersive dome experience. It will be a variety of immersive experience such as a day on Mars or African Safari or Pink Floyd, “explains Fernando.
