About the Show

Emergence: Things Are Not As They Seem is a deeply original performance of music, spoken word and psychedelia, led by artist Patrick Olson. He is backed by musicians, singers, dancers, and large-scale immersive video imagery.

You will not have seen anything like it.

Combining thundering music and mind trip monologues, Emergence explores the deepest aspects of the human experience with a riveting dive into the domain between science and art – uplifting, emotionally powerful and revelatory.

Following a sold out run in Los Angeles, Emergence makes its New York theatrical premiere for 13 weeks only.
