Sought after Ben Hur tickets
Ben Hur Live tickets look set to be some of the most sought after of the year, as the iconic Hollywood blockbuster is transported to London and played out live in a 360 degree, 2,500 square metre spectacle. With some of the biggest names in theatre, film and events, Ben Hur Live tickets offer London audiences the chance to see a fascinating live theatre show on a scale rarely seen.
Epic scale
Boasting a cast of over 400, accompanied by over 100 animals including camels, horses, eagles and donkeys, Ben Hur Live brings a monumental retelling of the classic film to the O2 Arena. Whether it’s the famous chariot race, the huge sea battles, Arabian bazaars, huge gladiatorial battles or the ancient Circus Maximus, Ben Hur Live will bring the legendary film starring Charlton Heston vividly to life.
Talent behind the scenes
Ben Hur Live has been fifteen years in the making and features some stellar talent behind the scenes. Originally conceived by German producer Franz Abraham, Ben Hur Live boasts music composed by Klauss Badelt (Pirates of the Caribbean and Gladiator), direction from Philip McKinley (The Wizard of Oz and Hair, Broadway) writing from Shaun McKenna (The Lord of the Rings, West End), with the whole affair being designed by acclaimed choreographer of the Olympics ceremonies in Beijing, Mark Fisher.
Iconic film
The original film starred Hollywood icon Charles Heston and won a record eleven Academy Awards, including Best Motion Picture, Best Director and Best Leading Actor for Heston. The film remains a favourite for many film fans and Ben Hur Live looks set to be hugely popular too, thanks to an intoxicating mix of storyline, spectacle, live theatre and stellar behind-the-scenes talent.
