PERFORMANCES OF THE CHRISTMAS SPECTACULAR RUN <\/strong><\/strong>NOVEMBER 9 \u2013 JANUARY 1, 2019<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

NEW YORK, Oct. 29, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Madison Square Garden Company (NYSE: MSG) announced today that Intel, the global leader in drone innovation, has joined the creative team for the 2018 production of the Christmas Spectacular Starring the Radio City Rockettes<\/em>\u00ae,<\/em> presented by Chase. One hundred Intel\u00ae Shooting StarTM mini drones will create a groundbreaking magical holiday drone light show over the Great Stage of Radio City using choreographed movements to create holiday-themed silhouettes in the all new finale scene \u201cChristmas Lights.\u201d This large scale integrated drone performance will mark the first of its kind for theater and for Intel. Intel will join an acclaimed creative team including the finale director and director of new digital show content, Sam Buntrock, a Tony, Drama Desk, and Olivier Award-nominee (Broadway and West End productions of Sunday in the Park with George); <\/em>and globally recognized design studio, Obscura Digital, which created stunning brand new digital projections that extend the show beyond the stage.<\/p>\n

\/EIN News<\/a>\/ — \u201cWe are thrilled to announce that Intel has joined our creative team. Intel\u2019s innovative technology and unique expertise helps propel our ambitious vision into reality with the first-of-its-kind large-scale drone performance in a theatrical setting,\u201d said Victoria Parker, executive vice president, productions, The Madison Square Garden Company. \u201cThe addition of Intel, the leader in the drone space, to our powerhouse creative team alongside Sam and Obscura Digital, ensures that Radio City and the Christmas Spectacular <\/em>will continue to push technological and artistic boundaries while maintaining the heart of the production \u2013 tradition.\u201d<\/p>\n

Intel created an entirely new entertainment concept by producing outdoor drone light shows, previously seen around the world mesmerizing audiences and setting world records. The Intel\u00ae mini drone featured in the Christmas Spectacular<\/em> is Intel\u2019s first drone created specifically for indoor light shows and will take center stage during the finale scene, creating dynamic animations and memorable silhouettes that represent the festive holiday season. This will be the longest-running production that Intel has created an indoor drone light show for, with approximately 200 performances at Radio City Music Hall during the holiday season.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are constantly exploring new venues for Intel\u2019s drone light shows. It is an honor to partner with Radio City Music Hall to integrate Intel\u2019s innovative technology into the iconic Christmas Spectacular,<\/em>\u201d said Natalie Cheung, general manager of Intel\u2019s drone light shows. \u201cWe customize our light show animations for each venue, and create performances with stunning visuals powered by technology that can produce billions of color combinations. Weaving Intel drones into this classic holiday tradition is something we hope the audience remembers for a lifetime.\u201d<\/p>\n

The new finale scene, \u201cChristmas Lights,\u201d will be a stunning example of how innovation is blended with tradition. The finale begins at the conclusion of the \u201cLiving Nativity\u201d scene with the original light of Christmas \u2013 the North Star. Fragments of light will suddenly appear as aerialists fly across the Great Stage. The Intel\u00ae mini drones, representing Christmas lights, will create various images and animations that are synchronized to music and lighting effects. As they build in numbers throughout the scene, the final culmination will showcase a one hundred Intel\u00ae mini drone light show, as their movement and flight path will interact with Obscura\u2019s digital projections to make various scenic elements magically come to life. The Radio City Rockettes will then be revealed, as they perform new choreography in glamorous new costumes designed by Tony and Drama Desk Award-nominated costume designer, Emilio Sosa.<\/p>\n
