Unprecedented Combination of Classic John Williams Scores and Indelible Cinematic Moments to Open European Tour at The O2

Rarely in the history of cinema have sight and sound combined as powerfully as in the Star Wars Saga, and The O2 will bring the two together as never before in Star Wars: A Musical Journey, which will play for two days only, Friday 10th April and Saturday 11th April 2009 before launching its European tour.

The show features an extensive selection of Oscar-winning composer John Williams' unforgettable scores from all six Star Wars movies in an extraordinary two-hour musical event that features scenes from the movies, live narration and, at the O2, the 86-piece Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and choir. Star Wars: A Musical Journey is produced by Another Planet Entertainment, in association with Lucasfilm Ltd.

The live multi-media performance also includes an exhibition of memorabilia from all six films, provided by the Lucasfilm Archives, including original models, props, costumes and production artwork.

Tickets to Star Wars: A Musical Journey will go on sale to the general public beginning Monday, 15th December, online at www.theo2.co.uk or by calling 0844 856 0202.
