James Hood is renowned as a vital and versatile musical pioneer - especially with his work on the PanART hang, a uniquely mesmeric melodic instrument, and for his collaborations with international animation artists.
His lengthy and varied musical resumé includes playing drums in The Pretenders, an ongoing two-decades-plus run as the mastermind of visionary ambient/electronica act Moodswings, and an expansive array of production and soundtrack projects.
Mesmerica XL is a giant-screen 3D experience unlike anything you’ve seen before, from the visionary mind of James Hood.
Designed to relieve stress, unwind the mind, and provide a deep sense of relaxation; pause and drift away into enchanting worlds of the imagination with this deeply immersive experience that will stay with you long after it ends.

There are no strobe lights used in the production but there are some fast image and light transitions, so we would advise caution for those who suffer from seizures.
Equally, while the vast majority of our patrons have an amazing time with no issues, a small minority who are very susceptible to motion sickness find immersive entertainment slightly uncomfortable, so we would advise caution if you fall into this camp.
We have found that autistic people love our experiences, though everyone's experience may vary.
Please note the venue is dark and there is surround sound. We advise sitting at the end of a row if you think a quick exit might be required.
Our on-site staff will assist if you alert them at check-in.
We are committed to following state and federal guidelines.
Should any precautions be required for a particular show, you will receive an email confirming the policies in place for the show you are attending. If you are not comfortable with these our customer service team will gladly assist you in moving your tickets to a later showing.
