Roger Waters brings Pink Floyd’s “The Wall” in HD - to the big screen at The Ridgefield Playhouse September 29

An HD Concert Event - Roger Waters brings Pink Floyd’s “The Wall” in HD - to the screen for one night only at The Ridgefield Playhouse on September 29

Roger Waters, the creative genius behind musical pioneers Pink Floyd, in association with Fathom Events and Picturehouse Entertainment, is set to bring his groundbreaking masterpiece, “Roger Waters: The Wall” to cinemas worldwide.  The Ridgefield Playhouse will be part of this special screening on Tuesday, September 29 at 8 p.m. for one night only. ‘The Wall Live’ - the biggest worldwide tour by any solo artist in history – has now become a groundbreaking concert film, written and directed by Roger Waters and Sean Evans. “Roger Waters: The Wall” is a film that unfolds on many levels: an immersive concert experience of the seminal 1979 Pink Floyd album, road movie of Waters’ reckoning with the death of his father in World War II, and a stirring film that highlights the human cost of armed conflict. Additionally, this event will feature an exclusive “in conversation” with Roger Waters and Nick Mason, where the Pink Floyd rhythm section will reunite over the breaking of bread and the answering of questions sent in by fans.

                                     Described by critics as "nothing short of breath-taking" and "visually magnificent," “Roger Waters: The Wall”had its premiere at last year's Toronto Film Festival. Beyond the outstanding music, Waters reflects on the impact of war on his own family as he embarks on a deeply personal pilgrimage. Woven throughout the film, the journey offers a revealing, candid portrait of a man who has been through enough, and lived in the world long enough, to be passionately and unapologetically anti-war.

The concert portion of the film was shot in 4K and mixed in Dolby Atmos during Waters’ sold-out 2010-2013 ‘The Wall Live’ tour. This concert production featured a massive 500-foot iteration of one of the most iconic pieces of rock 'n' roll staging – the famed “wall.” Seen by over 1.5 million fans across North America, 1 million fans across Latin and Central America and 1 million fans across Europe, that total of more than 4 million fans worldwide, makes Waters’ the biggest worldwide tour by a solo artist, ever.  Roger Waters said, “I hope these worldwide screenings this coming September 29 will be a good opportunity to remember, not just our fallen loved ones, but all the other guys' fallen loved ones. Ashes and diamonds foe and friend we were all equal in the end.”
