MOVIES AND MUSICALS

Aedín Gormley 2015 Image Name: Aedín Gormley 2015 Description: Aedín Gormley 2015

A programme of two halves today, to paraphrase the football pundits. Aedín interviews Pixar film makers Pete Docter and Jonas Rivera, recorded at the U.S. Embassy in Dublin as part of the ‘Creative Minds ‘ series.  Director Pete Docter and producer Jonas Rivera have been two of the key people in the development of many Pixar films working together on the likes of Up, and Pixar’s latest hit Inside Out. To follow, the RTÉ Concert Orchestra conducted by John Wilson present a salute to Stephen Sondheim in his 85th year. Kim Criswell, Ben Davis, Damian Humbley and Jenna Russell celebrate this master, the creator of countless startling, honest, dazzling, witty, heartbreaking songs including Broadway Baby, Being Alive, A little Priest and Sunday in the Park with George.
