STAND BY FOR ACTION!: GERRY ANDERSON IN CONCERT

World premiered on 16th April 2022 at Symphony Hall, Birmingham, Stand By for Action! Gerry Anderson in Concert is a unique celebration of the life and work of pioneering producer Gerry Anderson. Hosted by Jon Culshaw, this was the first time a career-spanning collection of music from Gerry's shows had ever been performed live in concert, brought to life by a full orchestra with a special appearance from BAFTA-winning composer, Anderson alumnus and conductor Richard Harvey. Through this FAB show you will be transported through Gerry's back catalogue as it pays homage to his remarkable partnership with composers including Barry Gray, Richard Harvey and Crispin Merrell. The iconic theme tunes and incidental music from classic Anderson shows - including Thunderbirds, Space: 1999, Captain Scarlet and UFO - are performed alongside that of his earliest work like The Adventures of Twizzle, Torchy the Battery Boy and Four Feather Falls, right through to Terrahawks, Space Precinct and his final production: New Captain Scarlet.
