Theatre: Marvel Universe LIVE! adds another date due to popular demand

Following an overwhelming surge in demand for tickets in the first few days of general sale, the spectacular live action family arena show Marvel Universe LIVE! Super Heroes Assemble is adding extra dates to its UK tour that touches down in Nottingham this September.

 

One extra show has been added at the Motorpoint Arena Nottingham. Tickets for the extra show on 7 September (7pm show) go on sale to the public at 9:00am on Friday 18 March.

“We are absolutely blown away by the market response to the on-sale of Marvel Universe LIVE! We are working diligently with our partners across the UK to ensure that as many families as possible have the opportunity to enjoy this spectacular live show for the very first time. The audience will feel like they’ve been transported into the Marvel Universe, with an engrossing storyline and non-stop stunts”, said Steven Armstrong, VP of Europe North at Feld Entertainment, Inc.

The show is taking the live entertainment experience to a whole new level, with an epic show unlike anything seen before. Bringing together the largest assembly of Marvel characters in a live production, audiences will be able to watch some of their favourite Marvel Super Heroes step out of the silver screen and onto the stage – bringing the action to life right before their eyes.

Everyone will be able to cheer for their favourite Marvel Super Heroes, including Spider-Man, Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, Black Widow and more, as they battle Loki and Marvel’s most sinister villains in a live, action-packed arena performance for the whole family. It’s being hailed as the most technically advanced live show ever, with cutting-edge special effects, pyrotechnics, aerial stunts, martial arts, motorcycles and more.

From the creative team that brings you such arena spectaculars as Disney On Ice, Feld Entertainment Inc, the world’s leading producer of touring live entertainment is excited to announce the UK tour of Marvel Universe LIVE! This arena stunt spectacular will be swinging into six major UK cities – Nottingham, London, Birmingham, Glasgow, Sheffield and Manchester – for an electrifying run of shows that have already entertained almost 2 million families in over 65 US cities to date in its first tour.

Featuring over 50 cast members and taking over two years to research and develop, Marvel Universe LIVE! utilises some of the latest innovations in arena set design and aerial pyrotechnics, with stunts developed by the team from Hollywood blockbuster, Thor, and the recent The Amazing Spider-Man films. The set includes innovative lighting design, transformative 3D projection, 21 projectors, the largest flying system ever used for a live arena tour and the debut of a new Spotlight Tracking System.

“To see all the elements of this spectacular live show come together has been truly incredible,” said Marvel’s Chief Creative Officer Joe Quesada. “The technology utilised in the show is not only going to blow your mind, it is going to take you to a whole new Marvel world like nothing British families have ever seen before.”
