You’re not watching a film.
This is live theatre.
Le Mime et l’Étoile at Puy du Fou transforms a projection-mapped town into a fully kinetic stage.
Gliding performers.
Flying aircraft.
Drone flames.
An entire world starting in black and white.
No screen.
No post-production.
Just engineering at cinematic scale.

I choreographed the Tap Dance section of that show with Karine Orts, wonderful dancer and choreograph
Where is this playing? I would love to see this.
Have gotten msgs of shows i should research and cover.. so far I have Boop, Brief Encounter, El Dilubio Que Viene.. tell me what else..
Amazing. Universal Orlando kinda pioneered this tech with T2-3D and perfected it with their Borne show. I love this advancement.
Yes. It is stunning. Once said, the Puy du fou is a themed park owned by a far right extremist billionaire who use this park as a tool for his natinonalist propaganda. More over, most of the workers are non-paid "volunteers" and creates an imbalance in the paid art system in France. Please, don't give your money to this kind of person.
Warning, when you go to @puydufou you give money to fascism
Shame the place is founded by the extreme right
Love this so!!! Reminds me of the production of BRIEF ENCOUNTERS out of the UK. Ran in nyc for awhile 👏👏😍😍
I remember, My visit as a child to Kingdom of dreams in delhi to watch jhumroo, what an experience, so immsersive. Impacted me forever
This is fabulous 🙌
Looks cool, but have you seen the Kneehigh Theatre production of BRIEF ENCOUNTER? It's a musical utilizing Noel Coward's songs which has the live stage characters interacting with the David Lean film, with some truly excellent effects. I caught it in London almost ten years ago.
Of COURSE I believe this is LIVE! Live theatre is AMAZING and there is nothing else like it on the planet!
You say, “illusion of motion”. The motion is absolutely REAL, though it appears that there is an illusion of SPEED!
This looks absolutely marvelous! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This is amazing!!! 🔥
Put du fou is an amazing theme park and it’s literally just that an actual theme park no rides no stupid characters walking around just an awesome shows. Great food and amazing hotel hotels. I highly recommend everybody go look it up. Watch the videos even if they’re in French.
