On April 11 2007 SHOWstudio staged a live ‘happening’ in association with PlayStation 3, viewed by an on-site audience of fifty SHOWstudio viewers at a secret location and a global audience via webcast.
The SHOWstudio Revue created a dynamic performance space in which six different ‘zones’ were defined by dramatic or musical action. The project also drew a live audience into the complicity of the director/performer relationship by asking each member to record the event on camera. Excerpts of the footage were screened live using PlayStation 3s throughout the night and were included in the editing of an exclusive film unveiled by the SHOWstudio team later that month.
