The team behind Liverpool’s Kazimier club has revealed details of its next venture in the city’s northern docklands.
Named ‘Ompholos’, the project will get underway at Kazimier’s Invisible Wind Factory site on 19 May with a run of shows which will also be taken on tour.
In an online announcement, the team has announced that tickets are on sale and has given a taste of what’s in store, saying: “IWF welcome you on a guided tour around our newly opened research facility. Commencing in the Visitor Centre, you will be introduced to the history of the organisation and briefed on our mission: the search for invisible wind and a world beyond the outer reaches of our scientific horizon.
“As part of your visit you will be admitted into the newly constructed Omphalos – a towering conversion chamber, to see first hand where the incredible resource of Invisible Wind is generated. The tour will culminate with a glimpse at the omnipresent force ‘energy eternal’.”
Shows will be performed at the Regent Road venue each night until 22 May as part of the concept, and then an Invisible Wind Factory launch party will be held on Friday 27 May to celebrate the opening of the new venue with further announcements of ‘specialist demonstrations’ which are set to take place expected in the run up to the event.
The new ‘Omphalos’ production, which has received Arts Council backing, follows a successful Kickstarter campaign last summer to raise £9,232 for the “creation of a spectacular live show” which was, at the time described as “a live experience taking audiences on a journey through meteorological and atmospheric conditions with sound, light, and performance”.
As part of the newly unveiled programme, a special dining event is also being lined up for 21 May before the show sets off on tour.
It promises a “modular multi-course meal inspired by the exploration of ‘Invisible Wind’”.
The venture comes after the Kazimier closed its Wolstenholme Square venue on 1 January following a New Year’s Eve celebration to make way for Elliot Group’s £40 million regeneration of the area.
The Kazimier Garden, on Seel Street, remains open.
