Overview

It's 1995. You're sitting down in the local theatre to watch an animated film called Toy Story. You're about to witness Hollywood history. Now, 30 years later, with almost 395 million USD at the box office from its debut film, the studio Pixar is a household nameToy Story has been cemented as an all-time animated classic, and you've got the opportunity to see it on the big screen again.

But this time, it's not your local theatre. It's the Concert Hall of the Sydney Opera House, and if you tilt your head down ever so slightly, you'll see the Sydney Symphony Orchestra sitting on stage, ready to perform the soundtrack as the movie plays behind them.

If you've never had the pleasure of attending a symphonic screening before, the talented musicians at the Sydney Symphony Orchestra — conducted by Nicholas Buc — have a way of bringing film soundtracks to life like you've never seen before. And what a film to see live in concert.

Toy Story, and its soundtrack by singer-songwriter Randy Newman, made animation history. Tom Hanks and Tim Allen as Woody and Buzz, the starring toys of the titular story, are two performances that are in the Pixar hall of fame. No matter if you're set for a long overdue rewatch or if you haven't seen anything of the film beyond online clips, you've got plenty of chances to see it with five epic shows at the Sydney Opera House between Wednesday, July 16 and Saturday, July 19.

'Toy Story' in Concert will be playing at the Sydney Opera House from Wednesday, July 16 to Saturday, July 19. For more information or to buy tickets, visit the website
