Melbourne Youth Orchestra Presents STAR WARS: IN CONCERT, 5/4

Melbourne get ready... May the fourth is International Star Wars Day and Melbourne Youth Music is presenting a not-to-be-missed intergalactic spectacular at Melbourne Recital Centre for Star Wars fans young and old.

Melbourne Youth Orchestra will join with leading Australian conductor Brett Kelly, guest musicians, choirs and actors, to lead a 200 member strong campaign to unleash an attack that is bound to be the talk of the empire!

Featuring iconic star wars themes by the galaxy's most successful and prolific film composer, John Williams, the event will 'force' the audience to choose their own fate as either Sith or Jedi. Expect a divided auditorium and prepare for an epic clash as star wars fans from all over don a costume and 'strike back'!

Members of Melbourne's choral community will come together to form the Tusken Raider Choir, Grand Choir of the Republic and Imperial Army Chorale.

Actors from the 501st and Hoth Base will feature on the day to add to the ceremony. There will even be a photo booth so that Sith's and Jedi's from all over can remember the occasion, under Storm trooper guard, of course!

For the die hard fans the event will incorporate a Cantina at interval where premium ticket holders have access to the Mos Eisley space port featuring the musical talents of the Cantina Band. Jedi's and Sith's in the Cantina can enjoy imperial refreshments, all the while seeking a pilot to smuggle them to Alderaan.

What is your destiny? Choose your own fate by selecting your seat, and attire, in Jedi or Sith sections of the auditorium for a spectacular that combines a full orchestra, choir, actors, lights and more... What better way to celebrate International Star Wars Day?!

When: Sunday 4 May, aka May The Fourth, from 5pm. (75 min duration)
