Hålogaland Teater
Tromsø, Norway
September 2012
ShowTex was commissioned to install a carmine red Wagner curtain and giant mirror on stage at the Norwegian Hålogaland Theatre for multiple productions.
Founded in 1971, Hålogaland Theatre was the first professional theatre in Northern Norway. A carmine red Wagner curtain in Velours Verdi and a 3m by 12m Giant Mirror by ShowTex set the stage for The Black Rider, a modern musical based on a classic story of one man's dubious deals with the devil. The stage as well as the performers were reflected in the mirror as it was angled towards the audience creating a unique atmosphere and special effects during the show.
