‘Blade Runner’ in concert tour to take place in September

‘Blade Runner’, the iconic sci-fi cult classic from Ridley Scott, will be presented live in concert for a UK tour in September.

After premiering at the Royal Albert Hall in 2019, ‘Blade Runner’ will once again tour the UK in 2024 beginning on 18th September. The full dates are listed at the bottom of the article.

The tour will feature the 2007 Final Cut of the film, which will presented on a vast HD screen while Vangelis’ score will be performed live by The Avex Ensemble in sync with the 1982 motion picture. The incredible soundscape score is one of the most defining of all time – heralded for both its 80s sound, but also its evocative and futuristic elements that have seen it become a staple of cinema sound composition.

‘Blade Runner’ sees detective Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford) continue as Replicant Hunter following the escape of 4 Replicants from colonies who’ve returned to earth. His mission however is complicated when he falls for Rachel (Sean Young); a Replicant based at the Tyrell Corporation.

On ‘Blade Runner Live’ touring the UK, Lucy Noble, Artistic Director at AEG Presents says; ‘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.’
