Raymond Gubbay Presents: The Best Of John Williams

CONCERT KIDS CINEMA

Glasgow Royal Concert Hall, Sat

There are few composers whose film scores are as iconic and memorable as the works of John Williams.

The list is huge – from Spielberg classics such as Jaws, Close Encounters Of The Third Kind, Schindler’s List and ET, to blockbusters like Superman, Harry Potter, Born On The Fourth Of July and Star Wars.

The Scottish Concert Orchestra performs the music with Pete Harrison conducting.

Wendy And Peter Pan

Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh, until Jan 5

Follow the fearless Wendy as she flies with Peter to Neverland – a world of dastardly pirates, feisty fairies and raucous lost boys.

This adaptation by Ella Hickson aspires to have all the magic and wonder of JM Barrie’s original, as Wendy and Peter fly together above the rooftops to Neverland.

There they find all is not well in the kingdom of the Lost Boys, as the villainous Captain Hook wreaks havoc.

Recommended for ages 5+.
