The Holiday with live orchestra is going on tour this Christmas
It’s a film all about showing love through tears, movies, and musical scores, so what better way to celebrate it than with a live orchestra? Here’s how you can catch The Holiday in concert at a big screen near you this Christmas.
Look, we know it’s too early to talk about Christmas. Some of us haven’t been on our summer holidays yet, let alone feel ready to talk about Christmas films. But, with the way this year’s going, let’s face it - we’ll only have to blink before chestnuts are roasting on an open fire and the Coca-Cola truck is rolling through town – so why fight it?
We’re here to tell you about The Holiday in concert, which is coming to venues across the UK this winter.
On big screens in London, Cardiff, Manchester and more, the beloved Christmas film will be played while an orchestra performs the soundtrack live on stage.
Originally released in 2006, The Holiday follows the story of Iris and Amanda – two unlucky in love women who try to escape their lives by swapping houses over the festive season. Amanda, played by Cameron Diaz, ends up forming a connection with Iris’s brother Graham (Jude Law). Meanwhile Iris, played by Kate Winslet, learns about the glamour of Hollywood and how to get over unrequited love with the help of Miles (Jack Black).
If the film wasn’t iconic enough, the gorgeous score was written by renowned composer Hans Zimmer, which no doubt helped the film earn its place as a Christmas classic. Grossing $205 million worldwide at the box office when it came out, it’s a hard one to beat.
