The Westport Playhouse, which closed in March 2020, reopens this weekend with a newly installed state-of-the-art 40 ft LED video wall. This technology will open up the capabilities to host concerts, film previews, and more. To kick off the fresh start for the venue, a mesmerizing show will utilize the new video wall.

DaVinci and Michelangelo: The Titans Experience is an off-Broadway experience unlike any other. This extraordinarily unique and awe-inspiring, breakneck, the multimedia journey takes you through the glory years of the Italian Renaissance with DaVinci and Michelangelo as your guides. Mark Rodgers’ presentation is powerful and passionate. The presentation includes 3D animations of the various da Vinci inventions, along with images and movies of his sculptures, codices, and artwork of both artists. Rodgers’ energy and passion are infectious, and you will quickly find yourself reeled into his world. Join Mark Rodgers, Director of the DaVinci Machines & Michelangelo Exhibitions for North America, as his one-man show is all set to awe and inspire you. The performance event focuses on showcasing the legendary geniuses at their very best and analyzing their work through a modern lens. The show isn't focused on telling their story but wants to be an insightful exploration of DaVinci and Michelangelo's many creations.

Performances run August 5-28. Tickets are available for purchase at www.westportplay.com
