STAR WARS Identities adds extra dates to UK run after “overwhelming” demand

O verwhelming demand has led organisers of STAR WARS Identities to extend the exhibition’s London run by an additional two days.

Originally set to open on November 18 2016, STAR WARS Identities: The Exhibition is now accepting bookings for November 16 and 17th, allowing even more fans to explore the saga’s rich history.

Developed and produced by Montreal’s X3 Productions in collaboration with Lucasfilm Ltd., the exhibition makes use of an extensive archive collection from the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art to explore the sciences of identity through the characters of Star Wars.

The stunning collection of some 200 props, models, costumes and artwork from the original Star Wars films, an interactive identity quest, and insightful scientific content, will all work together in STAR WARS Identities to follow the dramatic journeys of Luke and Anakin Skywalker. Visitors will develop a better understanding of what makes the characters of Star Wars who they are, and at the same time explore their own identity with one question: What forces shape you?

“This exhibition offers a fresh perspective on the beloved characters of Star Wars,” says Jacques-André Dupont, President and Executive Producer of X3 Productions. “We get a deeper understanding of their identities, and, at the same time, we get a deeper understanding of our own.

“The collection, the interactive components, and the scientific content work hand in hand here to create a seamless and exciting experience for our visitors. It’s a character-driven adventure into identity.”

STAR WARS Identities will be at The O2 from 16 November 2016 through 3 September 2017. Tickets are on sale now. For complete schedule and ticket information, visit www.theo2.co.uk/starwars or www.starwarsidentities.com.
