St. Louis Symphony Orchestra: Hook in Concert

St. Louis Symphony Orchestra: Hook in Concert at Powell Symphony Hall

Some movies stay with you because of the story. Others stay because of the music. Hook does both, and on January 22, 2027, Powell Symphony Hall in St. Louis gives you a chance to feel that bond in a whole new way. The complete Steven Spielberg film plays on a screen while the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra performs John Williams' score live, in sync with every scene.

That is the real draw here. This is not a conventional soundtrack concert. It is a film-and-music presentation, so you can watch Robin Williams' grown-up Peter Pan, Peter Banning, make his way back to Neverland while the orchestra brings the score to life in the same room. Every dramatic turn and every moment of wonder gets paired with live musicians. Conductor Samuel Hollister leads the performance, keeping the orchestra and the picture moving together.

It also makes an easy outing for two kinds of fans. If you grew up with Peter's mission to rescue his children, this is a chance to revisit that journey on a bigger stage. If you simply love orchestral music, it is a chance to hear a John Williams score played live from beginning to end of the film. Bring someone who shares your taste for movies, or someone you want to introduce to the magic. The 7:00 PM performance is built for shared memories. Make your plans now and secure your seats for Hook in Concert.
