INFORMATION

Clusters of Light was produced to celebrate the emirate of Sharjah being named the cultural capital of the Islamic world for 2014. The ruler of Sharjah, His Highness Dr. Sheikh Sultan Bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, commissioned the elaborate 90-minute music and light show to tell the story of the Prophet Muhammad from birth until death.

His goal in conceptualizing the Clusters of Light was to share the principles of Islam and to show the world how Muslims can connect and communicate with everyone. To achieve this, an international production team were appointed which included LarMac who were responcible for the technical production.To pull off this world-class oratorio, the ruler of Sharjah had an open-air Roman style amphitheater built on the man-made Al Majaz Island.

The show later transferred to perform a week-long residency in Cairo, Egypt.
