Bugs Bunny at the Symphony comes to the renowned Hollywood Bowl with the Los Angeles Philharmonic on Friday and Saturday, July 16 and 17. This production is a rechristened and newly-created concert sequel to Bugs Bunny on Broadway, the record-setting orchestra-and-film concert that reinvented a new genre of symphony orchestra concert when it debuted in 1990. The Bowl performances include a spectacular fireworks display and will mark Warner Bros.' official celebration of the concert's 20th anniversary. The new concert, as well as the original, is created and conducted by Emmy AwardTM winner George Daugherty, and produced by Daugherty, Emmy AwardTM winning David Ka Lik Wong, and their award-winning IFX Productions.

According to Daugherty, Bugs Bunny at the Symphony will still feature a number of Bugs Bunny on Broadway's most show-stopping cartoons, including Chuck Jones' brilliant "What's Opera, Doc?" and "The Rabbit of Seville," - two Looney Tunes classics. In addition, a number of new cartoons from the Merrie Melodies and Looney Tunes vaults will be added, including the debut of Tweety and Sylvester into the concert with "Tweet and Lovely," and Pepe Le Pew in "A Scent of The Matterhorn."

Additionally, a number of other animated stars from the extended Warner Bros. cartoon family will pay tribute to Bugs Bunny's stellar musical career - including Tom & Jerry in the celebrated "Tom and Jerry in The Hollywood Bowl," and spectacular cameos from The Flintstones, Scooby-Doo, and other stars from the world of Hanna-Barbera.
