Get ready for a spectacular event at the Hollywood Bowl as “Barbie The Movie: In Concert” comes to life on July 27! This unique experience offers a live-to-film music extravaganza presented by The Barbie Land Sinfonietta, featuring the remarkable talents of executive producer and orchestrator Macy Schmidt’s all-women and majority women-of-color orchestra.
As the first woman of color orchestrator in Broadway history and a Tony Award-winning producer, Schmidt brings her exceptional vision to this groundbreaking production. Described as a “one-of-a-kind immersive experience,” the event will also feature specialty limited-edition merchandise, photo opportunities, and more. Audiences will be treated to the enchanting sight of Barbie projected onto a giant LED screen above the Barbie Land Sinfonietta as they perform alongside the film’s award-winning score.
