The Terminator Live
Experience the groundbreaking cult classic, The Terminator, on a HD screen while Brad Fiedel’s signature synthesizer-led, percussive score is performed live in-sync with the 1984 motion picture.
The box-office smash-hit was legendary director and writer James Cameron’s break out film which spawned a franchise that is still going 40 years later.
The Terminator sees Arnold Schwarzenegger star as the most uncompromising killing machine ever to threaten the survival of mankind. An indestructible cyborg is sent back in time to kill Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton), the woman whose unborn son will become humanity's only hope in a future war against the machines. This epic sci-fi delivers an arsenal of action and heart-stopping suspense right to the end propelled by the percussive soundtrack.
The score will be performed live by the Replicant Ensemble returning after their performances of Blade Runner Live.
Presented in association with Park Circus and Metro Goldwyn Mayer.
