According to the New York Times, SONY Pictures is tapping into the motion-picture theater exhibitions niche, currently serviced by Fathom Events, by creating a competing line of business. Its first event will be the broadcast of rock musical RENT’s final performance. Cirque du Soleil fans may want to take notice, as this new unit will also beam DELIRIUM, Cirque du Soleil’s musical experience, to movie theaters later this year. DELIRUM’s final curtain was filmed in London and will also be released to DVD in the near future.
