‘Labyrinth’ concert tour stops in Phoenix this fall

It’s been 40 years since Jim Henson introduced us to Sarah, Hoggle, Ludo and David Bowie’s uncomfortably prominent bulge in his fantasy film “Labyrinth.”

To celebrate, Black Ink Presents, a division of Sony Music Entertainment, has announced the return of “Jim Henson’s Labyrinth: In Concert,” along with a 60-city North American tour. A live band will perform the score as the movie plays behind them.

The show will come to downtown Phoenix’s Orpheum Theatre on Thursday, Oct. 29.

“Watching audiences connect with Labyrinth this deeply has been extraordinary. From the costumes to the sing-alongs, the energy in every theater is electric,” says John Kinsner, CEO of Black Ink Presents. “With the film celebrating its 40th anniversary, this tour gives audiences a chance to rediscover the soundtrack with Bowie’s vocals and Trevor Jones’ score in a way that feels completely fresh and genuinely unforgettable.”

Tickets start at $49.97. VIP packages are available; perks include early entry, a “Labyrinth” tote bag, show poster and VIP laminate. Tickets go on sale on Friday, Jan. 16, at 10 a.m.
