Cyndi Lauper Farewell Tour

CYNDI LAUPER

FAREWELL TOUR

Cyndi Lauper’s farewell tour wasn’t just a concert—it was a crescendo. A final chapter as bold and unforgettable as she is. We didn’t just look back at her career; we pulled the audience into her world.

As the opening notes of She Bop hit, the visuals erupted—a montage of music, activism, and cultural moments that define Cyndi. Twenty screens filled the stage, glitching to life with color bars and test patterns before giving way to a tapestry of her most iconic moments. The five core screens carried the narrative, while the surrounding panels pulsed with glitch effects and halftone overlays, amplifying the energy. For Shine, we drew from Sonia Delaunay’s vibrant palettes and abstract forms—one of Cyndi’s inspirations. The visuals exploded with bold textures and color, building toward the peak as a remixed She Bop hit, and Cyndi stepped onto the stage. A moment that didn’t just capture her legacy—it embodied her spirit.

Twenty screens filled the stage, starting with glitch effects—color bars, test patterns—breaking expectations before revealing iconic moments from her career. The core five screens anchored the story, while the others played with bold overlays to amplify each scene.

For Walk-In and Shine, we took inspiration from Sonia Delaunay. One of Cyndi’s all-time favorite artists. Her bold colors

and rhythmic patterns felt like the perfect match for Cyndi’s vision.

This show wasn’t just about performing; it was about performing inside the art. Every song had a visual world, either inspired by or directly taken from the artists who’ve shaped Cyndi over the years.
