Luke Skywalker begins a journey that will change the galaxy in Star Wars: A New Hope.
Nineteen years after the formation of the Empire, Luke is thrust into the struggle of the Rebel Alliance when he meets Obi-Wan Kenobi, who has lived for years in seclusion on the desert planet of Tatooine. Obi-Wan begins Luke’s Jedi training as Luke joins him on a daring mission to rescue the beautiful Rebel leader Princess Leia from the clutches of Darth Vader and the evil Empire.
Witness the Star Wars universe come to life with this extraordinary score performed live in concert at the Sydney Opera House.
