After a glowing sold-out world premiere at the historic Kings Theatre in Brooklyn, New York in March, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse Live in Concert will head to venues across the UK, with other shows in York, Sheffield and Liverpool among the 11 tour dates.
Billed as a 'one-of-a-kind show', creators say it 'is ground-breaking in replication of the film’s score and soundtrack, fusing elements of orchestral and electronics'.
The music score for the box office hit was composed by multiple Golden Globe-nominee and Emmy-winning composer Daniel Pemberton, known for his work on movies such as The Man from U.N.C.L.E., Ocean’s 8, Steve Jobs and Molly’s Game.
He said: "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is one of my favourite scores I’ve ever written. Utilizing a full orchestra, crazy electronics and unbelievable turntable scratching techniques amongst a million other things, it is so technically complex I never thought we’d ever be able to actually reproduce it live, but somehow, we have."
A Sony Pictures Animation film, directed by Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey, and Rodney Rothman and written by Phil Lord and Rothman, the movie introduces Brooklyn teen Miles Morales, and the limitless possibilities of the Spider-Verse, where more than one can wear the mask.
Tickets, costing from £30.95, are on sale now and can be booked online via the Ticketmaster website.
