Life On Our Planet, the ground-breaking 8-part documentary series that tells the incredible story of the epic, four-billion-year journey of life on Earth, is being given another dimension in a spectacular audio-visual live experience, Life On Our Planet in Concert, and it's coming to Birmingham.

Life on Our Planet was created by Silverback Films in association with Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Television,  and narrated by Academy Award®- winner Morgan Freeman. Life On Our Planet in Concert allows audiences to see the story of life unfold on the big screen through its most pivotal moments - from the first single-celled life form to the first animals to move out from the sea and onto land, to the first creatures to take flight.

For 90 mins, City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra will deliver music which describe the five mass extinctions that have shaped the planet - plus the sixth we’re facing today. The series brings creatures to life known only from fossils in dramatic, photo-real fashion. Revisiting one of Earth’s longest-lived dynasties, the dinosaurs, viewers will bear witness to the age of the mammals and the rise of the most dangerous animal the earth has ever seen: us.

Life On Our Planet in Concert with City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra comes to Symphony Hall on Friday 4 October. Tickets are on sale here.
