Greek ‘Wall’ shows to be filmed; Milan dates moved

Posted April 20, 2011 by Floydian Slip

“The Wall” will be committed to film when the show is performed by Roger Waters in Greece in early July.

To accommodate the filming, the tour’s Milan, Italy, dates have been rescheduled. The July 6 and 7 shows for Milan have been moved to July 3 and 4, respectively.

Ticket holders are instructed to hold on to their tickets, which will automatically become valid for the new dates. Those who cannot attend the new dates, should return to their point of purchase for a refund no later than June 15.

Waters previously announced the shows in London would be filmed, asking for close attention of the show’s no photography policy, since flash photos interfere with the show’s projections and affect filming.

We’ve been told to expect a possible theatrical release of the show, as well as a DVD.
