Stewart Copeland's Police Deranged For Orchestra
Her Majesty's Theatre
Stewart Copeland's Police Deranged For Orchestra is a high energy orchestral evening bursting with The Police's biggest hits, such as 'Roxanne', 'Message in A Bottle', 'Don't Stand So Close To Me', 'Every Breath You Take', 'Walking on the Moon' & more.
Voted the #10 drummer of all time by Rolling Stone and revered as one of music's all-time-great rhythmatists, Copeland, along with Sting and Andy Summers, ascended to fame with The Police in the 1970s and 1980s, as they became the biggest band in the world. Following the band's dissolution, Copeland went on to earn further Grammy awards and acclaim for his work as a prolific composer in opera, ballet and orchestra music.
Now Copeland's prodigious skills as drummer, orchestrator and songwriter combine to present the catalogue of The Police in its most epic form: Deranged for Orchestra.
Featuring a 28-piece orchestra alongside a driving rock trio and a further trio of singers, Copeland and his entourage will deliver The Police's greatest hits in his first live music appearances in Australia in almost 20 years since The Police reunion tour of 2007-2008.
Copeland will perform in collaboration with Adelaide Symphony Orchestra. Acclaimed conductor Sarah-Grace Williams will conduct at all shows in Australia, alongside a touring rock band comprising Mike Mills (Toehider), Jude Perl & Nick Delaney and three international vocalists.
