Wondergy
A sanctuary filled with fans of laser light over a rapt audience

From one beam,
a festival of light.

A Hanukkah spectacle of laser, music & many-colored flame — for all ages.

IThe Spark

It begins with a single dot of light.

Move it fast enough and the physics of your own eyes turns one beam into a marvelous show. That is the secret of a laser spectacle — and the secret of how we teach: do a lot with a little, by using it well.

It's the same truth at the heart of Hanukkah — a small jar of oil that burned far longer than anyone dared hope. Our show is unscripted; we follow your community's curiosity wherever it leads.

IIThe Spectacle
More like a rock concert with an educational introduction.

With fog and five lasers, the Hanukkah story becomes a duel of light — building to a giant menorah, each flame glowing a different color in the haze above your congregation. You've never seen a laser show like this.

IIIThe Science

A laser show is a physics lesson in disguise.

Aligned with STEAM and the Next Generation Science Standards, the show explores real optics — while everyone is far too amazed to notice they're learning. A few of the things we might explore together:

i

Persistence of vision

Your eyes hold a bright image for a moment, then erase it — which is how one moving dot becomes a shape, and how movies move.

ii

How lasers make light

A laser is a concentrated beam that behaves unlike any other light. We show exactly why — then put it to work.

iii

Light, rays & momentum

Light is made of stuff. It can touch and bounce off the world. We make the invisible physics of optics visible.

·The Program
55–75Minutes of show
100–2,500Guests, all ages
5Laser sources
8-ftMany-colored menorah

Staged in synagogues, JCCs, performing-arts centers and gymnasiums. We bring the lasers, the lighting synchronized to your sanctuary, the sound, and the songs. You bring a tall, dark room — and your community.

IVThe Story

Twenty-three years of turning curiosity into light.

Wondergy began in 2003 with two science students drumming on buckets in New York, certain of one thing: people are curious. Since then we've brought wonder to millions — for the Phillies, for Lockheed Martin, for schools, camps and libraries, and on a forty-show tour across India.

The Festival of Laser Light premiered one December night in 2011 in a Princeton social hall. Three hundred guests came; the parking lot overflowed; and when the menorah lit in the dark, the room broke into spontaneous applause. Today we're focusing on what started it all — light.
