The Georgia Straight presents Thomas Dolby's Invisible Lighthouse Live at the Rio Theatre

Live Nation has announced that English musician and producer Thomas Dolby will play the Rio Theatre on November 17, 2013. 

Dolby, the Grammy-nominated artist and producer takes his new live show-part film, part concert, part transmedia event-on the road this fall. Each show will be a unique event that cannot be replicated outside of Dolby’s theater performance.

In a 20-date tour of historic arthouse cinemas and independent film festivals, Dolby will perform a live narration and musical score in front of a projected film image, accompanied by Foley artist/musician/sound designer Blake Leyh. Between them they will bring to U.S. audiences an innovative hybrid of documentary and art installation, as they manipulate sound, music, and lighting to dramatic effect.

Tickets for the (19+) show are priced at $25 (plus service charges), and go on sale this Friday (October 11) at 10 a.m.

Tickets are also available for purchase by phone at 1-855-985-5000 or online. Tickets also available at Red Cat Records and at all Ticketmaster outlets.
