Jim Henson's Labyrinth in Concert

In terms of pop cultural dream teams that seem like a fantasy, the combination of Jim Henson and David Bowie has to be up there. The two legends came together to create the 1986 puppet-heavy fantasy feature film Labyrinth, which has become a cult classic after fizzling at the box office. Bowie not only played the film’s flamboyant goblin king antagonist Jareth — who kidnaps the baby brother of Sarah (Jennifer Connelly), forcing her to journey through the titular mystical maze — he also wrote five songs for the film, helping to sonically worldbuild the fantasy realm alongside Trevor Jones’ score. Labyrinth’s majestic move gets the grand treatment when a live band scores a screening of the family-friendly adventure.
