LUMINISCENCE: The new 360° immersive live show at London’s Westminster Cathedral

An immersive exhibition at Westminster Cathedral combining 360-degree video projections, live choir and orchestra performances and narration by Hugh Bonneville, presented under the title LUMINISCENCE.

Visitors see a 360-degree video-mapping projection that follows the story of London and of one of the city's most important cathedrals, with the narration voiced by Hugh Bonneville. The script was specially commissioned for the production from Tim Whitnall. Live music runs alongside the projections, with the Lux Aeterna choir taking part throughout.

The exhibition is offered in three musical versions. The standard edition pairs the projections with the Lux Aeterna choir, the Orchestra edition adds a fourteen-piece orchestra, and the Christmas edition ends with a festive finale of seasonal classics and a special projection. Two categories are available: Gold, at the rear of the nave with the broadest panoramic view, and Silver, from the centre of the nave towards the front.

Westminster Cathedral is a religious building on Victoria Street in London, and the production takes place inside it. The show had its UK debut in Manchester before being staged in London, and it suits visitors interested in combining projected imagery, live music and spoken storytelling in a single visit.
