STAR WARS RETURN TO ELSTREE STUDIOS WITH A MUSICAL SPECTACULAR

Elstree Studios are thrilled to welcome back Star Wars, this time with STAR WARS: A MUSICAL JOURNEY.

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.

Roger Morris, Managing Director of Elstree Studios, said "I'm so pleased to welcome the Star Wars crew back to Elstree again.  All the Star Wars films used Elstree Studios as their UK Studio.  The fact that Star Wars: A Musical Journey has decided to use Elstree for its rehearsals prove that we are in tune with the industry.  I'm sure they will feel at home in their George Lucas stage."

The show features an extensive selection of Oscar-winning composer John Williams' unforgettable scores from all six Star Wars movies into 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.  The live multi-media performance also includes an exhibition of memorabilia from all six films, including original models, props, costumes and production artwork. The STAR WARS: A Musical Journey exhibit will feature many classic fan favourite artefacts, as well as several new and never-before-seen items from the Lucasfilm Archives.  Many of these exhibits are leaving Skywalker Ranch for the first time!

STAR WARS: A Musical Journey is produced by Another Planet Entertainment, in association with Lucasfilm Ltd.

Tickets to STAR WARS: A Musical Journey are on sale NOW at www.theo2.co.uk or by calling 0844 856 0202.
