The Moonwalkers at Lightroom
Shining a global spotlight on a new artform alongside a Hollywood legend
Lightroom is the London flagship home of the new artform that blends art, cinema and immersive design to tell stories by the world’s greatest creatives.
Borkowski launched The Moonwalkers - the new show co-created with Tom Hanks about humankind’s voyages to the Moon - to drive ticket sales, international recognition, and the challenge of communicating this new entertainment genre to a market crowded by stories set in space.
Borkowski highlighted Lightroom’s unique access to source material from the Apollo and Artemis missions, combining Tom Hanks’ unique star power and authentic love of space with testimonies from NASA astronauts and navigating the sensitivity of the SAG strikes to achieve extraordinary coverage.
