Three actors also appear on stage, creating scenes mixed with holograms. For example, at one point in the performance, the actors fight against a giant fire monster that is presented as a hologram.

Through technology that detects and recognizes actions and sounds, the audience can participate in the performance. The movement and verbal reaction of the audience is reflected in real time. In addition, pictures of the audience are put together using holograms when visitors enter the theater.
