Sound Mandala

Sound Mandala A new space to listen and experience fully immersive audio like you’ve never heard before.

04/21/2026

Our demo space is just 35 speakers. At a recent demo, a first-time listener threw her head back and just said, "WOW."

Just wait until you experience it 100 speakers strong this summer at Unicorn Theatre.

Tickets on sale May 1. Shows run June 10 – August 1

Revisit this interview with Sound Mandala creator Tom Mardikes looking back on what inspired Sound Mandala.

This summer the Sound Mandala will present a new show at the Unicorn Theatre as well as joining the KC Fringe Festival 2026, featuring a 100-loudspeaker channel system in the Jerome black box theatre seating 40 people. We refer to the Sound Mandala as a ‘Mecca-concept’----you must go there to have the experience. As this invention becomes commercialized and we experiment with visual images, this Mecca-concept will be a decided advantage to a film presenter---an advantage movie theatres do not enjoy today. The Sound Mandala experience cannot be duplicated in the home or in a car.

Experience it for yourself: Summer 2026 at Unicorn Theatre in Kansas City.
