LUMA, a show that uses LED lights, color mixing and remote controlled props while being performed in the dark, will be performed tonight at Templeton-Blackburn Alumni Memorial Auditorium. The performance is a special add-on show for the Performing Arts Series in an effort to appeal to a broader audience, said Andrew Holzaepfel, associate director of the Office of University Events. Blindness is, by definition, the inability to distinguish from one object to the next. The high contrast of light and dark will make the show enjoyable for the visually impaired, said Marlin, a former juggler who created the show in 1999. He designed the show when he became fascinated with the subject of light. The show is still evolving and still happening
Marlin said. The audience is encouraged to bring flashlights to the show so they can participate in the finale. LUMA takes the stage at 7 p.m. Tickets are $7 for students and children, $13 for seniors and $15 for general admission. 17
