Shaping Light, Defining Space: ACME at Xiao Zhan’s “HERE COMES OUR EXIT” Tour

October 23, 2026

On October 23 and 25, 2026, Chinese actor and singer Xiao Zhan kicked off his first solo tour, “HERE COMES OUR EXIT,” in Nanjing, marking the 10th anniversary of his debut. Designed by EYE SHOW STUDIO, the production combined a geometric, maze-like stage with four-sided 3D mapping, creating a layered visual environment where physical structures and projected imagery interacted. Integrated throughout the stage design, ACME fixtures added depth, movement and impact, helping translate the show’s creative concept into a dynamic onstage experience.



A key component of the lighting system was the newly launched PIXEL LINE SLIM, with over 300 fixtures integrated into the main overhead truss and scenic frames. Their slim, lightweight design allowed them to fit neatly within the stage architecture, while precise color rendering and versatile pixel effects offered the flexibility to create a diverse range of looks.



During heartfelt ballads, the PIXEL LINE SLIM delivered flowing gradients and delicate warm-to-cool transitions, creating an atmospheric backdrop that complemented the intimate vocal performances. As the music shifted into high-energy tracks, their crisp pixel effects and rhythmic color chases pulsed with the beat, transforming the backdrop into a dynamic field of color.



Complementing the PIXEL LINE SLIM, the PIXEL LINE IP outlined key scenic structures with dynamic pixel effects and intense strobe accents, reinforcing the stage geometry while adding sharp visual punctuation. The TORNADO added kinetic motion with its multi-head beam effects, sweeping beams across the venue to extend the visual impact beyond the stage. Meanwhile, the PULSAR S2 added further depth to the stage with versatile effects, transitioning from focused beams to soft washes in sync with the music. Together, these fixtures helped create a distinct visual layers to the production, balancing detail, movement and atmosphere.    



The Nanjing performances demonstrate how a well-integrated lighting system can do more than deliver individual effects. Working in harmony with the scenic architecture and projection mapping, ACME fixtures helped translate the production’s creative vision into an immersive audiovisual experience.
