Hot Stuff: Shakira To Embark On Interactive Tour

By Simone Hilliard

2010 ignited the 3-D phenomenon for Television, but have you ever heard of an interactive concert? When Shakira takes her Tour of Earthly Delights across the pond this December, fans can look forward to an experience like never before!

La Loba has teamed up with Punchdrunk theatre's director Felix Barrett to design one of the first ever interactive concerts!

Aimed at achieving a closer level of initimacy with fans, Barrett's immersive productions are known to allow the audience to choose what they watch and where they go.

Shaki told the The Daily Star what would happen behind the scenes:

“I’m going to be in the UK this December working with Felix. He’s one of those golden minds so I’m designing the show with him.  It’s going to have themes and there’ll be a lot of audience interaction.”

Barrett's previous theatre productions have allowed the audience to walk around the stage freely. Barrett explained: 

“It is important to make the audience the most important aspect of theatre. They should have much more power than they have ever experienced before.”

The She Wolf seems to agree with Felix, adding:

“My live show will have a lot of that, a lot of dancing, a joie de vivre. I feel such freedom on stage. It’s such a rush to be performing. I like to see everybody’s faces on stage, to see the reaction. Normally you can only see the front row because of the lights. So you’ll see see a lot of the energy you saw during my Glastonbury Festival  appearance, but there are also going to be other moments that I hope are artist­ically energetic. I want people to feel things up close. My vibe is to gather different influences from all over and put them together with my own style.”

We love the sound of that!
