UK tour announced for Blade Runner Live in Concert

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Blade Runner’ will be presented live in concert for a UK tour later this year.
Sir Ridley Scott’s classic sci-fi film will return to Britain in 2024 after previously premiering at the Royal Albert Hall in 2019 and having a successful regional tour in 2021.
The tour begins on September 18 at Glasgow’s SEC Armadillo before travelling to Manchester, London, Birmingham and Brighton before concluding in Bournemouth on September 24.
The 2007 final cut of ‘Blade Runner’ will be shown on a vast HD screen while Vangelis’ synthesiser-led score is performed live by The Avex Ensemble in sync with the 1982 picture.
The incredible score is one of the most defining pieces of movie music of all time – acclaimed for its 1980s sound but also evocative and futuristic elements that have seen it become a cinematic staple.
‘Blade Runner’ sees detective Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford) hunt down four escaped Replicants from colonies who have returned to Earth. However, his task is complicated when he falls in love with Rachel (Sean Young) – a Replicant based at the Tyrell Corporation.
Lucy Noble, Artistic Director at AEG Presents, said: “AEG Artistic is thrilled to be presenting ‘Blade Runner’ live across the UK next September.
“It’s amazing after 42 years the film and soundtrack still stand the test of time. This will be a truly amazing and unique way for audiences to revisit this iconic piece of cinema with Vangelis’ iconic score as they’ve never experienced it before.”
