ILUMINATE TO LIGHT UP VITERBO FINE ARTS CENTER STAGE MAY 6

LA CROSSE, Wis. – iLuminate will bring their incredible fusion of technology and dance when they perform at 6 p.m. Tuesday, May 6 in the Viterbo University Fine Arts Center Main Theatre.

Dancers in electrified glow-in-the-dark suits will perform dynamic routines and illusions on a darkened stage. iLuminate was called “The Best New Act in America” during their run on America’s Got Talent in 2011.

iLuminate was created by Miral Kotb, a woman whose passions in life are dance and software engineering, and she will be manning the keyboard and dancing on stage in archive video performances. In 2009, she created her patented iLuminate technology, the tool that enables performers, choreographers, engineers, technicians, stylists, and artistic directors to produce explosive performances with customized wireless lighting programs. The results are extraordinary lighting effects choreographed with phenomenal dance moves that take viewers on an exhilarating ride.

iLuminate technology has been used in shows around the world—from Cairo to Malaysia to the United States to Hong Kong. The group has appeared on television shows such as Dancing with the Stars, The X-Factor, Good Morning America, The Wendy Williams Show, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and a variety of award shows.

This performance sponsored by FOX 25/48 and is supported in part by a grant from the Wisconsin Arts Board with funds from the State of Wisconsin and the National Endowment for the Arts.

Tickets are $69 for orchestra pit, $46 for main floor and lower balcony, and $36 for upper balcony seating, plus a $3 convenience fee and $1 facility fee per ticket. All orders will include a 5.5% sales tax. For more information or to order tickets, contact the Viterbo box office at 608-796-3100 or visit www.viterbo.edu/tickets.
