There's An Opera For A Chinese RPG This Saturday

Australia doesn't typically get into the business of hosting stage
productions for video games. And there certainly hasn't been a lot of
collaboration between opera, video games and augmented reality. But this
weekend, Sydney is getting a dose of all three.

It's a stage production for A Legend of Sword, one of the longest running RPG
franchises in China and Taiwan, and it's coming to Sydney's Lyric Theatre
this Saturday. That's unusual enough as is - the Lyric Theatre, let alone any
Sydney theatre, doesn't typically host anything remotely related to video
games.

Making this extra special is the fact that the Legend of Sword production
will lean on augmented reality throughout the show. "[To] achieve the
augmented reality effects, there are a number of layers of screens on the
stage that animate various elements - from the environment to 3D characters,"
Ice Liang, producer of The Legend of Sword said in a press release.

There's only two shows being held, one at 1:30 PM Saturday Sydney time and
another at 7:30 PM. The cheapest seats left, in the dress circle, will set
you back $50 a pop. If you want a closer view of opera meets AR meets China's
World of Warcraft, you can pay up to $170. There were three seats left in the
first row at the time of writing, but who knows how long those will be
around. (Regular seats in the stalls start from $80.)


My partner's officially moving into my place on Saturday, so unfortunately
I'll be out of action. But if anyone has already scooped up tickets, or plans
to do so, let us know. It sounds awfully interesting, even to someone who has
no experience with the franchise
