As the MGM lion lets out its third roar, the 12-piece band hits the opening chords of Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of The Moon. Behind them, a giant screen is playing The Wizard of Oz while a full house of fans—some wearing pointy witch hats or other costumes designed to evoke the 1939 classic—erupts in pleased excitement. Eventually, the band is joined by other performers: A Glinda the Good Witch who floats into view within a transparent vinyl bubble, a pop-and-locking Tin Man covered in silver paint, and at least a few aerial performers dressed as flying monkeys.
Over the course of the evening, a handful of the dancers and aerialists fly across the set while the band keeps perfect time with the movie, allowing every coincidental (or is it?) bit of synchronicity between the screen and the Pink Floyd album to come into view.
Amazingly, this entire production was put together in less than a week. This is Little Cinema: the Saturday Night Live of immersive cinema.
