Review: FILMS IN CONCERT: THE LORD OF THE RINGS TRILOGY, Royal Albert Hall
by Cindy Marcolina - May 4, 2026

It takes just under ten hours to appreciate J. R. R. Tolkien’s masterpiece if you watch Peter Jackson’s epic trilogy one film after the other. For many fans, it’s a yearly occurrence to gather with friends to re-watch Frodo and his band of brothers fighting evil to save the Shire. This year you can do things differently. The Royal Albert Hall rings in the 25th anniversary of The Fellowship of the Ring with a celebration of their own, showing Jackson’s magna opera in its entirety, accompanied by the London Philharmonic Orchestra, the London Philharmonic Choir, and the Trinity Boys Choir. As far as movie marathons go, you can’t beat the glamour of attending one of the most iconic franchises backed by a live orchestra in a magnificent setting like the Hall. 

Preview: THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE TWO TOWERS IN CONCERT at Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium
by Amanda Barnum - Apr 6, 2026

I was personally inspired to go into acting and filmmaking as a young adult thanks to this timeless trilogy. Although the films are marketed as the fantasy genre, they go beyond and touch on so many inherently human conditions from friendship and loyalty, to the ultimate corruption of power. I know I am looking forward to this performance more than any other this summer and I hope to see you there.
