Tour dates have been finalised for the musical experience…
As announced last November, for the first time ever, Jim Henson’s original masterpiece and musical fantasy film Labyrinth is to tour the UK in concert. Starring the iconic David Bowie, fans will be transported to Goblin City in an exciting fusion of film and live music on stage with Jim Henson’s Labyrinth: In Concert. The tour comes after phenomenal demand for a previously announced London performance at Royal Festival Hall.
A performance has been added at London’s Eventim Apollo on 13th April, prior to the November tour which will begin at Southend Cliffs Pavilion on 22nd November, followed by performances in Liverpool, Birmingham, Bath, Sheffield, and Edinburgh, before finishing up at Glasgow’s Royal Concert Hall on the 30th November.
Labyrinth‘s loyal and steadfast cult following has grown for nearly 40 years since the film’s theatrical release on June 27, 1986. Audiences are invited to experience an epic evening as the movie is presented on a large HD cinema screen. On stage, a live band will perform in sync with Bowie’s original vocals, playing the songs and the score from the soundtrack composed by Bowie and Trevor Jones.
Jim Henson’s Labyrinth: In Concert producer Black Ink Presents, a division of Sony Music Entertainment, is known for its extensive history of breathing new life into iconic films with symphonies, orchestras, or bands live on stage, including Batman, Ghostbusters, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Rocketman, La La Land, and more.
Starring Bowie and Jennifer Connelly, as well as scores of goblins and creatures from the renowned Jim Henson’s Creature Shop, the film features a soundtrack of unique and memorable melodies, with Bowie’s original songs like “Magic Dance,” “Underground” and “As the World Falls Down,” along with Jones’ orchestral score. The collaboration between Bowie and Jones provides an enchanting and distinctive musical experience, perfectly capturing the whimsical and fantastical elements of the film and contributing to its lasting acclaim and popularity.
