Festive favourite Home Alone to be shown on screen with a full live orchestra playing the score
manchestereveningnews.co.ukChristmas wouldn’t be Christmas without Home Alone, and while talk of the festive period in September might be triggering for some, events are starting to move into the holiday calendar already.
As such, the classic Macaulay Culkin caper will be heading to the Opera House in November. As a pre-festive night out to get you in the mood, the John Hughes movie will be shown on screen, but with a live orchestra playing the classic John Williams score along with the action.
