Le Voyage Dans La Lune (A Trip To The Moon) Georges Méliès 1902 12mins
This famous film is considered to be the first science-fiction film in cinematic history. A group of astronomers in constellation-covered robes decide to construct a rocket and travel to the Moon. They land in the poor man-in’the-moon’s eye, and set off to explore the Moon's surface. They encounter strange moon inhabitants called Selenites, and return to Earth, bringing one back home in their rocket. Originally silent, before the ‘talkies’ were invented, screenings of the film would have been accompanied by a live musician on piano, who would add drama and emotion to the story. This version’s soundtrack is by David Short & the Billi Brass Quintet

See EVENTS page for all sessions. Suitable for 5yrs+
Please note: the immersive space will be managed by a responsible adult with all required child safety clearances. Parents/Carers, please remain in the venue while your child is in the Lumière space.
Naomi Oliver will facilitate an immersive, interactive, creative experience for children, specially curated for Lumière, in the Victoria & Albert Hotel.
The V& A’s salon will transform into a fun, colourful, light-filled space, encouraging imaginative and sensory play, including RGB lighting for colour and shadow experimentation, and interactive light-table activities. Participants will learn about colour mixing, composition, refraction, and creating art with light projection.
Children become collaborative artists, shaping the installation's appearance, using prisms, coloured gels, shadow shapes and materials to produce layered projections in the space, documenting their visual experiments via photography and video.
These are inclusive, accessible events, providing supported, safe, exploratory spaces for children 5yrs and over.
