Discovery Dome 2The Discovery Dome 2 provides the Centre’s anchor theatre attraction,
presenting high-profile science and nature documentary films. The 240-seat theatre places the audience in the scene under a large
domed projection screen and surrounds the audience with image and sound. Guests
will be transported to the summit The immediate reaction when entering the theatre is “wow!” Formal plush seating make for a luxurious theatre experience, whether it be for the main schedule of large-format films, or for any of the special event programs such as science lectures, or live-from-science news spectaculars. A typical schedule would see curriculum-oriented films for schools in the morning, “big ticket” large-format films for most of the day, and special science, art and rental events in the evening. LECTURES, RENTALS AND SPECIAL EVENTS – The Dome will have a Hi Definition A/V projector as well as a large-format film projector to support lectures, special events and rentals such as weddings and corporate meetings. THEATRE TECHNOLOGY CENTRE – Given a seating configuration similar to a large-format dome theatre, the space underneath the seating risers will be on display from the lobby, where visitors can look into the array of high technology media equipment that is running the show inside. FUTURE INTERACTIVE SCIENCE - VISUALIZATION SHOWS – Digital projection systems promise to make large dome theatres much more versatile and interactive in the future, offering the opportunity to program around a variety of interests ranging from interactive games to 3D science visualization. |
