DAVID BOWIE: YOU’RE NOT ALONE
LIGHTROOM UNVEILS MAJOR NEW SHOW OPENING IN APRIL
COMING 22 APRIL 2026 | LIGHTROOM | LONDON KING’S CROSS N1C
[London, Tuesday 10 February 2026] Today Lightroom announces a groundbreaking show, David Bowie: You’re Not Alone, which will transport visitors into the iconic performances and creative mind and spirit of one of the world's most visionary and influential artists.
Featuring the artist as its sole voice, David Bowie: You’re Not Alone is both a multimedia spectacle and an intimate and revealing self-portrait.

The 360° experience, produced by Lightroom and designed by 59, a Journey studio, is written and directed by 59’s Mark Grimmer (Creative Director for the V&A’s David Bowie Is exhibition) and Tom Wexler. You’re Not Alone will showcase some of Bowie’s landmark performances that redefined popular culture, using a mixture of iconic, rarely seen and never-before-exhibited material, selected from thousands of hours of film in the vaults of the David Bowie Archive in New York, from Space Oddity through Diamond Dogs and ”Heroes” to ★. Audiences will have the chance to feel they have travelled through time to experience Bowie in performance - up close and first-hand. Each track in the show has been newly reconfigured to utilise Lightroom's specialised spatial audio system by multiple Olivier and Tony award-winning sound designer Gareth Fry (Harry Potter & The Cursed Child, David Bowie Is).

This is David Bowie, the man himself. Instead of magnifying the myth through the lens of his characters - Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin Sane, Halloween Jack, The Thin White Duke - You’re Not Alone places its focus on the man behind the masks: the provocateur, the polymath, the shapeshifting icon in his enduring, human form.

The film is structured in thematic chapters in a looping presentation, giving a unique insight into Bowie's perspective on the subjects most important to him, including: theatricality, spirituality, songwriting and the transformative power of creativity. There are surreal moments, like the transatlantic TV interview with Russell Harty in 1975, in which Bowie artfully takes control of the narrative and the interviewer is reduced to asking him questions about the colour of his hair. Elsewhere, the reconstructed set of the inimitable Diamond Dogs tour materialises before our very eyes, igniting a Bowie performance unlike any other captured on film.

Bringing together a wealth of visual material from a wide range of sources, the show combines rare performance footage, photography, drawings, lyrics, personal notes and audio recordings. David Bowie: You're Not Alone will celebrate Bowie's boundless curiosity as a force that connected people across continents and generations, as well as his enduring cultural impact today.

The show builds on Lightroom’s growing repertoire of critically acclaimed shows that have now been seen by over 1.5 million visitors globally, including creative collaborations with David Hockney, Tom Hanks, Anna Wintour and Vogue and Apple TV.

David Bowie: You're Not Alone is being made in close collaboration with and authorized by the David Bowie Estate.
Mark Grimmer, who also wrote and directed Lightroom’s David Hockney: Bigger & Closer (not smaller and further away) said:

"It says something about our relationship with artistic heroes that we're drawn to mystery, otherness, the alien... In Bowie's case, this is our construct, not his. Throughout his career, Bowie repeatedly resisted being figured as anything but human. Rather than undermining his mystique, we designed a show to celebrate Bowie as a champion of human creativity - focusing on the message he expressed time and again: that art, in all its forms, is our best hope for understanding what it means to be alive."

David Sabel, Executive Producer at Lightroom said:

“Lightroom offers an incredible opportunity to step inside an artist’s imagination and creative universe – weaving film, photography, animation, text and music into a story that can only be experienced in this space. I cannot think of an artist more suited to this than David Bowie. To spend time in his world as it comes to life around you and to travel back and forth across the decades of astonishing performances, whether reliving them or experiencing them for the first time, is a total thrill. Working so closely with RZO and the David Bowie Archive has been a great privilege.”

Tickets for David Bowie: You're Not Alone will go on sale on 10 February at 7pm, priced from £25 for adults and £15 for students and concessions: https://t.co/gXCkQU3rMz

Tickets will be available from 22 April until 28 June, with more tickets being released for summer soon. To be the first to hear about the next ticket release sign up to Lightroom’s mailing list here. https://t.co/n1ZQ97ToiW

★ BLACKSTAR SINGLE IS 10

“In the centre of it all, Your eyes...”

Ten years ago today, following the video premiere the day before, the ★ Blackstar digital single was released.

Jason Draper has written an in-depth piece regarding the recording and release of the track: ★ (‘Blackstar’): Behind The Cryptic Song That Announced Bowie’s Stellar Final Phase

Here’s the introduction...

+ - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - +

When ★ (pronounced “Blackstar”) lit up an otherwise uneventful autumn day in 2015, it served notice of another bold new direction for David Bowie. Running just shy of ten minutes, it was Bowie’s second-longest song, after ‘Station To Station’, and it contained more than enough invention to tide fans over until the release of its parent album, scheduled to hit the shelves a little under two months later. Also picked as the opening song and title track of what would become Bowie’s final record, ★shouldered a great responsibility – one which Bowie knew it could carry with ease.

As usual with Jason’s work, it’s a very well researched piece and you can read the full thing here: https://t.co/G73qe61fOO

NEW EXCLUSIVE BOWIE PRODUCT IN V&A STORE

“...a fading photograph of a…”

For those of you who don’t receive the V&A members’ email, there’s some Bowie-related content that may interest you.

The initial image we’ve used is a detail from the new David Bowie Ziggy Stardust photoshoot large tote bag. (See second slide)

The bag features a previously unpublished contact sheet from Masayoshi Sukita’s February 1973 photoshoot at RCA Studios in New York, and we think it’s a bit tasty.

The other images we’ve used are a few V&A exclusives from the range, which includes: “New and exclusive officially licensed David Bowie art prints, Bowie t-shirts, Bowie books and more, accompanying the opening of the V&A's David Bowie Centre - the world's largest collection dedicated to the life and works of this extraordinary creator.”

While this is true, currently there is no store at The David Bowie Centre at V&A East Storehouse. But, for now, these items are available online here: https://t.co/Mmdh4q4boe or in person from the V&A in South Kensington.

@mengonimarco Ci vediamo stasera. Finalmente ❤️!

Sul ‘pedaggio Meloni’ il Governo batte in ritirata e cancella la misura. Non per senso di responsabilità: perché lo abbiamo smascherato. Hanno provato a colpire milioni di cittadine e cittadini nel silenzio, poi si sono nascosti -incapaci di metterci la faccia - e alla fine sono stati costretti a fare marcia indietro. Una prova di ignavia politica. E ora fanno finta di niente, prendendo in giro gli italiani.

Ma è tutto nero su bianco: quell’emendamento lo hanno firmato, e solo dopo la nostra denuncia, oggi pomeriggio lo hanno cancellato. È questo il volto del Governo Meloni: tasse camuffate, condoni agli evasori, lotta contro il salario minimo.

Altro che taglio delle tasse: provano a fare cassa con chi parte per le vacanze, poi quando vengono scoperti si nascondono dietro l’ennesima messinscena.
