With Evolv’s state-of-the-art Evolv Express® screening solution, visitors can now walk right into the venue without any unwelcome delays at the entrance.
The Marcus Performance Arts Center (Marcus Center) is a gathering place for the community. The largest Marcus Center venue, Uihlein Hall, provides the stage for everything from touring Broadway shows to nationally and internationally acclaimed artists, as well as a place for local artists and theater companies to perform. With today’s announcement, the audience can get to their seats faster, thanks to an entry process that can screen up to 3,600 people per hour.
“Evolv has completely transformed our audiences’ experience,” said Jayson Wasielewski, Director of Security at Marcus Performing Arts Center. “Audience members are able to enter our venue with ease and get to their seats quickly.”
Evolv Express uses powerful sensor technology with proven artificial intelligence (AI) to provide safer, more accurate threat detection at unprecedented volume and speed. The technology enables guests to walk through the system side-by-side without removing items from their pockets or bags.
“The Marcus Performing Arts Center works to bring people together with its programming,” said Peter George, CEO of Evolv Technology. “With our partnership, the Marcus Center’s audience members can turn their attention to the experience and enjoy the performance.”
Audiences first experienced Evolv Express when Hamilton was presented at the Marcus Center in October of 2021. Broadway at the Marcus Center continues into 2022 with performances of Mean Girls in January, Pretty Woman in March, and Cats in May, among other shows. The Marcus Center is also home to the Milwaukee Ballet Company, Florentine Opera Company, and the Milwaukee Youth Symphony Orchestra.
