Tesla: Light, Sound, Color brings lightning to the stage with live physics demonstrations, digital animation, an original string and electronic musical score, and contemporary choreography. The 90-minute stage production is the culmination of a 2016 Oregon Community Foundation Creative Heights award. Hailed as a genius of the industrial age, Serbian immigrant Nikola Tesla continues to captivate the public with his electrical inventions that includes alternating current, contributions to radio transmission, the Tesla coil, as well as 280 other additional patents. The production brings Tesla’s enigmatic story to the stage by combining the science of his inventions with mixed media representations of his complex and tumultuous life.
