Owen and Olly beamed down to Glasgow and Edinburgh for a fantastic pair of space-themed concerts. We were so impressed with everyone's fancy dress efforts... Here are some photos of the rehearsal and concert, taken by Karen Gordon and Daniel Pollitt!

Owen and Olly practice riding their tiny bikes at the rehearsal, with E.T. tucked in the basket of course!

An exciting Jedi vs Sith battle goes on right in front of the orchestra, and... is that Yoda in the percussion section??
