This Is Floyd - A Tribute To Pink Floyd - experience the mesmerising sounds of Pink Floyd like never before.
Since 2007, the band have been refining and perfecting their 2 1/2 hour theatre show, concentrating on the timeless classics that defined an era. Initially formed in the SW, but with members from all parts of the UK, the band are now expanding their show with expectations to tour the whole of the UK and Ireland in the next few years.
From the ethereal ‘Echoes’ to the wonderment of ‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond’ and on to the haunting beauty of ‘High Hopes’, the performances are meticulously crafted to honour Pink Floyd’s legacy. The show includes custom designed thematic light shows, spectacular laser effects and the iconic circular video screen.
The band members themselves have over 150
years of combined experience in music production, recording, choreography and
touring. Sit back and enjoy a moving experience, which will be truly
unforgettable, as they pay homage to one of the greatest bands in history.

Synopsis:
At a cosy Christmas party, young Clara meets the mysterious magician Drosselmeyer, who gives her a nutcracker doll. When the guests have departed and the house is asleep, Clara sneaks downstairs in search of the doll. Instead, she finds Drosselmeyer, who whisks her away on a journey into a whole world of enchantment: fantastical landscapes of flurried snow and glittering confection where toys come alive and the magic never stops.
Peter Wright's production of this festive family favourite sparkles to the wondrous swell of Tchaikovsky's orchestral score, alongside the glow and grandeur of Julia Trevelyan Oman's period designs.
