Star Wars: The Force Awakens in Concert - Melbourne Symphony Orchestra - $39 Tickets (Restricted Viewing)

180

Noticed earlier that Ticketmaster have released a last-minute batch of "restricted viewing" seats for the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra performances of the score for Star Wars: The Force Awakens. The seats are rows A-D in the 'Orchestra' section right in front of the stage and designated as "restricted viewing," so presumably the screen/orchestra might be slightly obscured in this position. These performances are at the newly refurbished Palais Theatre in St Kilda, Melbourne.

The presentation itself is part of the Star Wars live-to-picture concert series, where the actual Star Wars film is projected with sound effects & dialogue while the orchestra performs the film's musical score (by John Williams) live on stage.

Tickets slightly further back in the front section are considered 'premium' and cost over $130 (and other seats go for over $150) so if you're prepared to sit close to the stage/orchestra then this is a bargain! There's only Friday night, Saturday night and Sunday afternoon performances remaining. Enjoy!

Running Times:

Doors: 6.30pm
Pre-Concert Talk: 6.45pm (30 mins)
Act One: 8.00pm
Interval: 9.00pm
Act Two: 9.20pm
The End: 10.30pm (approx.)

    We just left. It was (profanity) brilliant. Nice to not be the only one clapping for a change.

      This. Same. Loved every moment of it!

      • I loved every moment except waiting for that stupid tram that didn't turn up, and left us out in the rain for a good while.

        • Ha! I was driving - so was all good. Hell, we should open up a section for these kinda things so fellow Ozbartgainers can carpool?
          Idea for the mods maybe?

    • Did it start right on time and doors close? I’m Coming back from Brisbane Sunday morning and would love to see the Sunday show but not sure I can get there for the start

      • I think it was a good ten or so after but TBH ten seconds of waiting for the opening crawl feels like ten years to me.

        • Haha I know the feeling. Think I’ll haveto skip it. If I miss the start I might as well miss it all

        • Did the orchestra play all the way through the end credits as well, the 'Jedi Steps and Finale' track from the soundtrack?

        • @Mega Vanillish: Yup.

          No post credit scene with Luke (profanity) Mara and making Rey though.
