This might sound a bit strange but I’m sure plenty of Star Trek fans will be interested in this news: a Star Trek concert series is being planned, set to begin in Europe next month and then move to the U.S. later this Summer.
Here’s the announcement:
One of pop culture’s most iconic franchises is about to be seen and heard in a brand new way. CBS Consumer Products, Paramount Pictures, 21st Century Symphony Orchestra, IMG Artists and the Gorfaine/Schwartz Agency will launch Star Trek: Live in Concert featuring the Star Trek (2009) and Star Trek Into Darkness films. The events will celebrate the extraordinary collaboration between film and music as Michael Giacchino’s scores are brought to life on stage with J.J. Abrams’ blockbuster films shown simultaneously in high definition on the big screen.
Debuting in Europe this May with performances in the UK and Switzerland, Star Trek: Live in Concert will premiere in the U.S. this July in Houston and San Diego. The San Diego Symphony performance will coincide with Comic-Con International in July. The Philadelphia Orchestra also will perform Star Trek Into Darkness at the Mann Center in Philadelphia in late July.
Star Trek: Live in Concert makes its way to Canada in March 2015 at the Sony Centre in Toronto. Performances in additional cities and countries will be announced soon.
