Star Wars on Stage. [Link]In Star Wars: A Musical Journey, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra will play a live score as excerpts from the six films are shown on a cinema screen.
The show has been put together by director George Lucas' company Lucasfilm and composer John Williams.
It will premiere at the O2 arena in London in April before a European tour.
It will not be a traditional musical with actors playing characters from the films, but will feature live narrators.
The six Star Wars films have been edited down to two hours for the show, and Williams has "painstakingly rewritten" the music he wrote for the movies, a statement said.
Models and props
The Royal Philharmonic will use an 86-piece orchestra and an accompanying exhibition will feature original models, props, costumes and production artwork.
