A Transformers live action attraction set within a custom-built 4,500 seat theatre is to launch next year in China, DMG Entertainment has announced.

Expected to be located near Beijing, the theatre will host a live show featuring the shape-shifting robots, aerial stunts and large-scale special effects.

“Transformers Live will be a cross between an action-adventure spectacle, a theme park attraction and a theatrical show. Fans will experience intense action, beautiful visual moments, an emotionally engaging story, lots of humour and rousing music,” said Michael Cohl of S2BN Entertainment. “The show will offer a fusion of proprietary technologies including robotics and advanced projection capabilities along with amazing aerial and acrobatic sequences.”

Cohl has previously produced shows including The Marvel Experience and Alvin and the Chipmunks.
