Korra Live Concert Tour
The Legend of Korra Live Concert Tour Announced, Featuring Orchestral Experience and Southern California Stops
Anonymous
Fans of "The Legend of Korra" are getting a rare treat. Paramount, GEA Live, and Senbla have announced a live-to-picture orchestral concert tour bringing the beloved animated series to the stage, according to SB Sun. The show pairs a live orchestra with the series' cinematic visuals projected on a big screen.
The tour will hit over 20 U.S. cities, including three stops in Southern California. It will also travel across Europe to 10 cities. Tickets are available through Ticketmaster, according to OC Register.
What a Live-to-Picture Concert Actually Is
A live-to-picture concert is exactly what it sounds like. A full orchestra plays the show's score live while footage from the series plays on a large screen overhead. Fans get the music and the visuals at the same time — all in one room. It is a format that has grown popular with franchises like Harry Potter and Star Wars.
"The Legend of Korra" is well-suited for this format. The show is known for its rich, layered score. Bringing that music to life with a live orchestra gives fans a chance to experience it in a whole new way, according to Press Enterprise.
Three Southern California Stops on the U.S. Tour
Southern California fans have three chances to see the show. The U.S. leg of the tour covers more than 20 cities in total. Exact venue details and dates for each Southern California stop have been announced as part of the broader rollout, according to Daily Breeze.
Tickets are on sale now through Ticketmaster. Fans are encouraged to act fast, as live-to-picture events in major markets tend to sell out quickly, according to Press Telegram.
Europe Also Gets 10-City Concert Tour
The tour is not just a U.S. event. A European leg will bring the concert to 10 cities across the continent. The combination of a North American and European run makes this one of the bigger rollouts for an animated series concert tour in recent memory, according to SB Sun.
'Korra' Sequel Series Still Has a Loyal Fanbase
"The Legend of Korra" ran from 2012 to 2014. It is a sequel to "Avatar: The Last Airbender." The show follows Korra, the next Avatar after Aang, as she fights new threats in a modernizing world. It built a devoted following despite a bumpy run on Nickelodeon.
The concert tour is a sign that the franchise still has serious pull. Paramount and its partners are betting that fans will pay to see Korra's world come alive on stage. With a massive U.S. and European run planned, the stakes are high, according to Daily News.
