Touring Dublin, London, Glasgow, Manchester and Birmingham with matinee and evening performances in each city, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring in Concert brings one of cinema's most beloved blockbuster films to the Arena Stage . The production pairs the full film with a live performance of composer Howard Shore 's Academy Award-winning score, performed by leading orchestras and choirs in each city.

The London performances at The O2 will be the largest staging of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring in Concert ever presented in the UK, while audiences in Dublin, Glasgow, Manchester and Birmingham will have the chance to experience the production in their city for the first time.

The tour sees The Fellowship of the Ring presented on a 60ft HD screen alongside a live performance of Howard Shore 's score, brought to life by 239 musicians performing in perfect sync with the film. The full orchestra and chorus accompany every step of the journey, from the rolling hills of the Shire to the depths of Moria and beyond.

Widely regarded as one of the defining achievements in film music, Shore's score has topped Classic FM's Movie Music Hall of Fame for three consecutive years, cementing its place as one of the world's favourite film soundtracks.

The film introduces us to Frodo Baggins ( Elijah Wood ), the lowly hobbit who is enlisted by the great wizard Gandalf ( Ian McKellen ) to undertake an epic quest to save Middle-earth from the ever-growing forces of darkness. It's a mighty tale of myths and magic, greed and deception, courage and conviction, men and monsters, elves and dwarves... and the one ring that rules them all.

Since its release in 2001 The Fellowship of the Ring has remained one of the most influential blockbuster films ever made. The first chapter in a trilogy that continues to shape popular culture, its legacy can be seen everywhere: from internet memes and global fan communities to New Zealand's thriving screen tourism industry, the subsequent The Hobbit films, and further cinematic stories already in development.

Few film franchises are associated with scale, wonder, and collective memory quite like The Lord of the Rings trilogy. For many, these films were first experienced as huge communal cinema moments. Now, a quarter of a century on, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring in Concert offers audiences the chance to come together again and relive the film that first brought J. R. R. Tolkien's world to cinema audiences 25 years ago.
