See Todd Phillips' acclaimed film accompanied by a live orchestra performing the award-winning score

Joker is nominated for 11 Academy Awards, more than any other film, including Best Picture, Best Director Todd Phillips, Best Actor Joaquin Phoenix, and Best Original Music/Score by Hildur Guðnadóttir
Golden Globe winner for Best Actor and Best Original Score
BAFTA winner for Best Actor and Best Original Score
Critics’ Choice Award winner for Best Actor and Best Score


On 30 April, Todd Phillips’ ground-breaking, award-winning film Joker will be screened with the accompaniment of a live orchestra playing composer Hildur Guðnadóttir’s award-winning score for the first time ever, for a limited engagement. The tour’s World Premiere will take place at London’s Eventim Apollo on the 30th before it embarks on an international schedule.

Central to the emotional journey Joaquin Phoenix’s character Arthur Fleck takes throughout the movie is Guðnadóttir’s beautifully haunting, BAFTA and Golden Globe-winning and Academy Award-nominated score. The fusion of looming industrial soundscapes with raw, emotive string-led melodies - led by a lone cello - creates a melancholic shroud marked with moments of hope, which unfolds gradually to become a fever pitch of disquieting tension.


This extraordinary music will be brought to life by a full orchestra to create a vivid, visceral and entirely new Joker viewing experience. Performed live, Guðnadóttir’s inimitable score illuminates further the emotional weight, texture and atmosphere of Phoenix’s captivating portrayal.
