In The Blu: Deep Rescue, Dreamscape's breathtaking co-production with WeVR, an epic descent into the ocean to explore dazzling underwater worlds and aquatic life soon becomes an urgent mission to rescue a trapped baby Blue Whale and unite it with its mother.
At opening, Dreamscape's NorthPark Center location will house three stand-alone adventure pods, featuring an array of exciting original and studio-based experiences that will be refreshed on a regular basis. Dreamscape is located on Level Two between Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom.
