Bunjil Place Theatre

Your mission, should you choose to accept It: an evening of the most thrilling music ever written for big screen spy films, performed live by full symphony orchestra.

From the smoky suave of James Bond to the swaggering parody of Austin Powers, from the razor-sharp suits of Kingsman to the pulse-pounding countdown of Mission: Impossible, the deductive brilliance of Sherlock Holmes, and the incompetence and gags of Get Smart — hear the power of the full Casey Philharmonic Orchestra bring the sound of spies and secret agents to life in glorious surround sound. No screen required; just a full orchestra doing what your speakers at home never could.
