WILMINGTON — The Wilson Center has announced to shows that will entertain audiences this fall — “Avatar: The Last Airbender in Concert” and “MasterChef All-Stars Live!”
Since the Nickelodeon animated series debuted in 2005, “Avatar: The Last Airbender” has become a fixture with fans around the world, spawning a universe of popular characters, spinoff series, books, films, and a live orchestra tour, “Avatar: The Last Airbender in Concert.” The tour marks the 20th anniversary of the show with live orchestral performances of the series’ beloved soundtrack. The show features a two-hour visual journey through all three seasons of the series, projected on a full-size cinema screen with new elements and artistic surprises.
“When I started work on ‘Avatar: The Last Airbender,’ it was a dream to have the music performed by an orchestra,” said Jeremy Zuckerman, the creative mastermind behind the show’s original music. “Now, over 20 years later, with the concert tour, that dream has come true in a way I never could have imagined. I’m elated that more people will continue to share in it.”
The show will take place Tuesday, Sept. 20, at 7 p.m. Tickets go on sale to Wilson Center members on Wednesday April 30 at 10 a.m. and to the general public on May 2 at 10 a.m.
On Sept. 28 at 3 p.m., “MasterChef All-Stars Live!” will feature a cast of chefs from past seasons of the cooking competition MasterChef. The show is described as a “high-energy,” bringing fans and foodies the excitement of the TV show to a live stage with head-to-head cooking demonstrations and thrilling challenges. Audience members will have the chance to participate, helping the show’s winners and favorites create and taste-test their culinary delights. Plus, fans will get insider tips and tricks to apply in their own home kitchens.
Specific cast members will be released at a later date. Tickets are on sale now to Wilson Center Members and the general public will be able to purchase on Friday, May 2 at 10 a.m.
