The flagship production “Noah” from Sight & Sound Theaters will celebrate its 30th anniversary with a big-screen, newly enhanced showing through Fathom Entertainment beginning September 18.
“Sight & Sound Presents: NOAH—Live!” will sail into movie theaters nationwide for one week, bringing the spectacle of biblically-based Broadway-style productions to audiences around the country.
“30 years ago, when ‘NOAH’ first premiered on the stage, our ministry was forever changed,” shared Matt Neff, Sight & Sound Chief Executive Officer. “This production broke all the rules of traditional theater and helped us discover our calling to bring the Bible to life on stage. We are grateful for the way it continues to inspire audiences today and thrilled to bring ‘NOAH—Live!’ to moviegoers across the United States with our friends at Fathom.”
Recorded live in front of an audience on Sight & Sound’s Lancaster, Pennsylvania stage, “NOAH—Live!” is an updated version of the classic musical and takes audiences on board one of the world’s best-known voyages.
“Fathom has enjoyed a longstanding and successful partnership with Sight & Sound and is very pleased to bring its flagship title with a new production back to movie theatres nationwide in this, its 30th anniversary celebration,” said Ray Nutt, Fathom Entertainment’s Chief Executive Officer. “Millions of fans have enjoyed the timeless ‘NOAH’ over the years, and this special Fathom theatrical engagement will bring the story to countless new fans, young and old alike.”
Throughout the last three decades, nearly five million people have seen the NOAH production at Sight and Sound’s Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and Branson, Missouri, locations. Though the core story remains unchanged, the company is using updated technology, storytelling and soundtrack.
“Our technology has advanced, our storytelling has deepened, and our musicality has evolved,” explained Ryan Miller, Executive Producer. “When we decided to return ‘NOAH’ to the stage, we focused on building upon the show’s legacy while making decisions that enhanced the audience’s experience and presented the Gospel in a way that is just as applicable to our lives today.”
With more than a dozen cameras covering the theater from every angle, including on stage and behind the curtain, moviegoers will have a front row seat to every extraordinary moment of ‘NOAH.’ In addition to the performance of this new production, “NOAH—Live!” will include exclusive bonus content — featuring an opportunity to meet Sight & Sound’s famous animal actors.
“We’ve had the honor of partnering with Fathom Entertainment on previous theatrical releases, but there’s something extra special about taking the production that started it all into movie theaters nationwide!” said Katie Miller, Director of Brand Development. “We look forward to this opportunity for audiences to come together and be reminded of how God’s faithful promises continue in our lives today.”
Five previous collaborations between Fathom Entertainment and Sight & Sound have occurred, including “I Heard the Bells,” which landed at number two for its opening weekend box office results in 2022, and the successful live broadcast of “Daniel” over Labor Day Weekend in 2024. Sight and Sound theaters currently attract an audience of one million viewers in their two locations every year and have expanded their reach with streaming, film production, and partnerships with Fathom Entertainment.
Tickets for “NOAH—Live!” are now on sale at NoahEvent.com and participating theater box offices.
