Due to popular demand, Film Concerts PH adds a third performance of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back In Concert on August 31 at 7:30 PM. Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back In Concert features composer John Williams’ GRAMMY®-winning score performed live to the film. Fans will experience the scope and grandeur of this beloved film in a live symphonic concert experience led by conductor Gerard Salonga and Filharmonika Orchestra on August 30 & 31, 2025 at The Theatre at Solaire. Film Concerts PH first introduced Star Wars: A New Hope In Concert in September 2024, and now continues the saga with Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back In Concert.

Since the release of the first Star Wars movie over 45 years ago, the Star Wars saga has had a seismic impact on both cinema and culture, inspiring audiences around the world with its mythic storytelling, captivating characters, groundbreaking special effects and iconic musical scores composed by Williams.

The film and its RIAA® platinum-certified soundtrack feature seventeen score cues composed by legendary Academy Award® and GRAMMY® Award-winning composer John Williams.  

The battle for the galaxy intensifies in this thrilling fifth episode. As Imperial Forces launch an all-out attack on the Rebel Alliance, Han Solo (Harrison Ford) and Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher) flee to Cloud City where they are captured by Darth Vader. Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) journeys to the mysterious, marshy planet of Dagobah, where the wise Jedi Master Yoda teaches the young hero the ways of the Force.

Little does Luke know that all his Jedi training will be called upon so soon. A stunning revelation – and a seeming life-or-death duel with Darth Vader – await.
