“I think I will go home and watch them, it seems really cool,” Mombourquette said. X3 Productions collaborated with the Montréal Science Centre’s team of experts in a variety of fields to build the exhibition. Jacques-André Dupont, president and executive producer of X3 Productions, said the teams’ knowledge and expertise have shaped the exhibition’s structure and their input has been essential in developing its scientific and educational content. “This exhibition offers a fresh perspective on the beloved characters of Star Wars,” Dupont said. “We get a deeper understanding of their identities, and, at the same time, we get a deeper understanding of our own ... . It’s a characterdriven adventure into identity.” Exploring the complex notion of identity in both the real world and in the films, X3 Productions hopes shed light on each of the components of identity. The exhibition will divide the study of the characters from the movies identity into three major themes: the origins
of the characters, the influences that shape them, and the choices they make during their life. It’s by looking at these characters’ identity that patrons will have the chance to learn about the components which make up their own human identities, such as species, genes, parents, and culture. The museum promises many fun aspects to the new exhibit including a making-of featurettes which explore the stories behind the development of many iconic Star Wars characters and explain how they became who they are, and how different creative choices could have made them different characters altogether. There are interactive identity quests, scientific content and the chance to follow Luke and Anakin Skywalker through their journey. Online ticket sales for the exhibition opened on March 23, with opening day beginning on May 10. Visitors can also begin their identity adventure online at www.starwarsidentities.com. Adult tickets are $23 and children are $13.25. The exhibition will run until Sept. 2.

EMC news - The space museum has gone out of this world to find its summer programming this year. The Canada Aviation and Space Museum announced Star Wars Identities: The Exhibition on March 20. A museum showcase will feature the characters from the famous film series, including Darth Vader, R2-D2, Chewbacca, Yoda as well as Anakin Skywalker’s full-sized Podracer, offering both old and new fans of the films the chance to explore what forces shape the person or species you become. Created by Montreal’s X3 Productions in collaboration with Lucasfilm Ltd., the exhibition first appeared at the Montreal Science Centre in the spring of 2012. It has since travelled to western Canada, and will move to the capital starting on May 10. “We are extremely happy to host this wonderful exhibition, which asks fascinating questions about how identities are developed,” said Denise Amyot, the chief executive of the Canada Science and Technology Museums Corporation. “We are certain it will prove to be extremely popular with the National Capital Region’s residents and visitors. It will be a wonderful complement to our fascinating exhibitions on aviation and space travel.” The museum invited a group of students from Georges Vanier Catholic School to meet some of the characters of the series, including Darth Vader and a few Stormtroopers. Student Rachael Mombourquette said her family has all the movies at home, but she admitted she was never really interested until now.
