Programme Note
We're going to catch a BIG ONE! A 40-piece orchestra performs the music for WE'RE GOING ON A BEAR HUNT live alongside the animated film.
On the afternoon of SATURDAY NOVEMBER 5th.... Come and join us at Regent Hall on London's buzzing Oxford Street as we head on an orchestral Bear Hunt for charity!
The award-winning animated film We’re Going on a Bear Hunt follows the intrepid adventures of siblings Stan, Katie, Rosie, Max, the baby and their pet dog Rufus, who decide one day to go on an adventure through the countryside in search of bears. The animation and music bring to life the irresistible story and beautiful artwork of Michael Rosen and Helen Oxenbury's bedtime favourite, which has enchanted new family audiences with its story of perseverance, optimism and a love of nature since its Channel 4 TV premiere on Christmas Eve 2016.
Now experience it on the big screen with the thrill of a LIVE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA! Composer Stuart Hancock will conduct an orchestra comprised of the Band of the Welsh Guards and the Countess of Wessex's String Orchestra - who recently performed so magnificently alongside all the stars at the Platinum Jubilee Party at the Palace.
The family show will include a fun guide to the musicians in the orchestra and the tunes in the music score to listen out for, as well as singalongs to George Ezra's charming title song Me and You.
All profits from the performances will benefit the ROYAL BRITISH LEGION, providing financial, social and emotional support to members and veterans of the British Armed Forces, their families and dependants.
