The Star Wars franchise is here to stay. With a schedule of a movie released every year including one out this December, Rogue One – A Star Wars story, fans cannot get enough of opportunities to get closer to their interstellar heroes from the big screen and find out more about characters and the stars behind the films. Now a groundbreaking exhibition STAR WARS Identities: The Exhibition opening at the O2 on 18 November 2016 explores the complex notion of identity through the characters of Star Wars with a exclusive collection of 200 props, models, costumes and artwork from the Star Wars films. Visitors will be taken on an interactive identity quest, leaving with their own personalised and unique Star Wars character.
For almost 40 years, audiences around the world have followed the adventures of Anakin and Luke Skywalker, cinema’s most famous father and son duo. STAR WARS Identities is a redefined modern exhibition experience in which visitors will rediscover the unforgettable characters of Star Wars in a whole new way. Developed and produced by Montreal’s X3 Productions in collaboration with Lucasfilm Ltd., the exhibition makes use of an extensive archive collection from then 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?
STAR WARS Identities will be at The O2 from 18 November 2016 through 3 September 2017. Tickets are on sale from www.theo2.co.uk/starwars or www.starwarsidentities.com.
