Millennium Dome Show London 2000 widescreen

The Show at the Millennium Dome December 2000, now called the O2 Arena. The Millennium Dome Show was a multimedia, Cirque du Soleil-esque show created specifically for the year 2000. Peter Gabriel wrote the music, available in the album OVO.

The show detailed the story of a fictional set of beings, that transition from agriculture to industry, while segregating different races. Ovo is the offspring of both races, and is set to sail the sky after a catastrophe occurs.

Thanks for all your kind comments....It was for bidden to take video at the dome show ...but I persevered! It' a pity I'm the only person who seems to have any footage of it...if there is anyone else let me know. Yes the aerial show was great....a pity the exhibits were rather lame.

My Dad worked at the Dome so I would get free tickets twice a month, I remember each time I went we'd always make sure we saw the show as we all found it to be by far the best thing inside.

I just can't work out why it wasn't more publicised (the show that is) as it would of brought so many people.

My Dad was given a VCR tape of the show when he left, I'll see if I can get it off him and copy it somehow and to post on youtube.

i was there for the last ever show, and it broke my heart having to see this fantastic show finish. my mother [rip] worked at the millenium dome and sometimes had to stand during the show to make sure no one ran onto the stage. she would have loved to have seen this. I lost count as to the times I saw the show, knew most of the cast and crew. thankyou for posting this. it actually brought tears to my eyes

@silverfoils Yer, alright then. !!!!!!!!!

@Fizzypop1211 My point was that money could have been made from the dome (as is happening now), but the state gave it away instead of recouping money stolen from the taxpayer to build it in the first place. Don't wear out your ?????? key ;^)

[Fizzypop1211]

@silverfoils ???? eh? current success?? doesn't it just show 2 lessons? - that it is possible to spend a ton of money on something dead simple, then give it away,

2, that if you're given something at a fraction of the cost (i.e. you dont bear those costs) it is possible to make money out of anything, even an unimaginative uninspired not fit for purpose (what purpose?) upside down teflon dome?

@smixtro 2 years matey....how you getting on with the video upload?

[lucaslight777]

Yes, where find a DVD about that fabulous show. I have still so good souvenir about it ... The messages were so powerful, also the show and the music of Peter Gabriel ... So much emotions ... All the attractions were also so wonderful into the Millenium Dome. It was pity that not much more publicity was done on the continent to see all the temes exposed there during that year 2000 for our generation, next and next to next generations (Make Tommorow ;-)
