SFX has uploaded more interviews with the creative team behind Doctor Who Live.The magazine talks to Will Brenton, Director Of Doctor Who Live who talks about how the show is being put together.
We’re bringing a lot of action into the auditorium. Apart from all the backstage crew, we’ve got 16 people in the cast, a 16-piece band, three sound desks and our lighting is being done by a guy who’s just come off the Stevie Wonder tour. It’s a big old scale.
To Ben Foster the arranger and musical director who tells of how he has arranged the music for the tour and of the importance of music to the show.
It’s exclusively music that has already been broadcast on the show. Which is great because many people know the themes. We’re doing some of the favourites, but we’re also doing some stuff from series five, because that’s becoming very popular too. Especially the Eleventh Doctor theme that we did at the Prom.
And to Paul Hardy-Brown one half of the illusionists engaged to bring magic, illusion and special FX to the show.
It’s going to be a fantastic show that’s never been seen before in a theatre or an arena in the UK. Even worldwide. It’s a very, very interesting show. The fans and audience will get value for money. It is going to be a great, great show. Even if you’re not into Doctor Who, it’s going to be spectacular.
