This year’s Radio City Christmas Spectacular starring the world-famous Rockettes is the most dynamic production to grace the Great Stage featuring this new state-of-the-art technology as well as new scenes, new costumes, and new musical compositions.  The Christmas Spectacular is part of the fabric of New York during the holiday season and is seen by more than one million people each year. This year the Christmas Spectacular will use architectural scale projection mapped onto Radio City Music Hall’s proscenium arch and art deco interior giving the audience the feeling that they are being immersed in an array of sound, lighting, theatrical and pyrotechnic effects as each scene transforms to the next.

Digital Media Systems used a Christie projector recently to transform Lincoln Center’s Avery Fisher Hall from an opera hall to a cinema house in less than 48 hours for a special New York City Film Festival preview of Martin Scorsese’s new film Hugo. In addition to the Christie digital cinema projector, they supplied a silver screen for optimal 3D images, draped the entire theatre to improve acoustics, and built a special projection booth from scratch.
