Wish You Were Here - The Sight and Sound of Pink Floyd

Presented by Akron Civic Theatre at Akron Civic Theatre

Wish You Were Here – The Sight & Sound Of Pink Floyd presents their 20th Anniversary Tour Finale and Children’s Benefit. Performing Pink Floyd’s greatest hits, classics and obscurities, the show will benefit Cassidy’s Hope Foundation for childhood cancer awareness and Akron Children’s Hospital Palliative Care Center. Their record-breaking 20th Tour has seen the band playing to some of the biggest crowds in their history, and features new videos, lighting and production elements, to be performed on the same stage as Pink Floyd in 1972.

Wish You Were Here’s theatrical concert presentation combines Sight and Sound to capture the mood, emotions, and intensity of the Pink Floyd experience. The show utilizes a professional 9-piece musical ensemble featuring 7 vocalists (including 2 female vocalists), authentic sound effects, theatrical vignettes with props, characters & flying inflatables, and a choreographed light show with rolling fog and state-of-the-art intelligent lighting – all produced by experienced industry professionals with a fan’s obsession for detail. Wish You Were Here authentically recreates the music from Pink Floyd’s entire career, performing the crowd favorites that all rock fans recognize, interspersed with the show-stoppers that appease even the most ardent Floyd fanatics.
