Dance department reprises pioneering hologram performance “Imagined Odyssey�

Case Western Reserve’s Department of Dance reprises its breakthrough original work, “Imagined Odyssey,� this fall. Last year’s sold-out performances drew national attention from the dance community and technology companies alike.

This November, the department will feature the dance performance again as part of its fall concert, “Mosaics.� The show’s dreamlike holograms will be brought to life by Microsoft HoloLens, a mixed-reality headset that each of the 80 audience members will wear during the piece.

“Imagined Odyssey� will be performed in Mather Dance Center on the university’s campus. Advance ticket reservations are highly recommended and may be made by calling (216) 368-5246 or placing an order online.
