- The sound and light show will premiere Wednesday, July 4, shortly after the fireworks show around 9:30 p.m.
- The FREE show will run twice per hour, and lasts for about 8 ½ minutes. It is best seen from Kennedy Plaza on the boardwalk.
- The light show takes advantage of Boardwalk Hall's architecture. "When Boardwalk Hall was first built in 1929, novel approaches to theatrical lighting were incorporated into the structure. The 196,000 square-foot barrel ceiling of aluminum painted tiles became the reflector for a dazzling show of lighting technology, anticipating the future of using artificial light to enhance and define exterior and interior space. The design brought an 'electric sun' inside the auditorium, creating entertainment for tourists, and further highlighting the building’s grandeur."
- Duality uses the history of Atlantic City paying tribute to the city and playing up Boardwalk Hall's best features. It will feature an original music score created by musician and composer Vincent Letellier.
- This is the first permanent lighting installation of its kind in Atlantic City and first public interactive art display.
- Duality will be a permanent show but music, theme, and lightning colors will change throughout the year.
- There are twelve 20,000 lumen video projectors installed on the façade of Boardwalk Hall, and a surround sound speaker system that will bring the building itself to life during the presentation. Special care had to be taken to not compromise the integrity of historic Boardwalk Hall, and the installation took two weeks and 14 specialized technicians to put in place.
The lights, music, the special effects ... the kids are going to love it.
