The Hologram USA Theater has opened to the public on Hollywood Blvd, just one block from the Egyptian Theater, the Hollywood Wax Museum and other major venues. The opening show is Billie Holiday Alive!, playing on the hour daily from noon to 6 p.m. In the evening, variety acts take over. The theater is at 6656 Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles.
The Hollywood Blvd. theater is the first dedicated hologram theater in the world. The next three will open in December in Chicago, Indianapolis and Foxwoods, CT. Holograms have been called the next billion dollar business, and Hologram USA expects to roll-out of hundred and fifty theaters nationwide by the end of 2018.
“Everyone who has been in is blown away, saying they’ve never seen anything like it. We sold out seats on our first day,” says Hologram USA CEO Alki David. “Our Billie Holiday show is both beautiful and heartbreaking, letting audiences experience her talent and presence full strength. Our other acts demonstrate the game changing nature of holograms--there’s something for everyone.”
Billie Holiday Alive! presents Lady Day at the peak of her powers, singing her most famous songs, and key moments from her tragic life story. In addition, the theater presents hologram sets by top comedians such as Michael Blackson, Lachlan Patterson, and Jon Lovitz, as well as Hologram Fight Club (featuring a surprise live MMA bout that is a tribute to the greatest kung fu master and the best boxer of all time), and Ray J and Kato's Sexy Hollywood Freak Show.
Concessions are being created in partnership with Alchemy, the superfood café, and includes optional Swissx CBD oil infusions in vegan chocolate shakes and organic popcorn--allowing the audience to “Watch and Relax.” Swissx makes the purest CBD oil available from Swiss grown hemp seeds--and with no “high” or THC, it is safe and legal.
