Indie rock star Phoebe Bridgers is set to join Danny Elfman's The Nightmare Before Christmas concerts in London this December, singing the part of Sally.

The live-to-film performances will take place at London’s OVO Arena Wembley on December 9th and 10th and will see Elfman and Ken Page reprise their roles from the original 1993 stop-motion animated musical, which was directed by Henry Selick and produced by Tim Burton with music by Danny Elfman.

Elfman will star as the protagonist, skeletal zombie Jack Skellington and Ken Page will appear as the villain Oogie Boogie. Sally, Bridgers' character, is a humanoid rag doll and Jack Skellington's love interest, and was originally voiced by Schitt’s Creek star Catherine O'Hara.

The BBC Concert Orchestra, conducted by John Mauceri, will be bringing the film’s soundtrack to the live stage. The classic movie will be shown on the large screen during the show, and performers will play the film’s musical numbers live.

The performances will also feature Greg Proops, Randy Crenshaw, Fletcher Sheridan, and violinist Sandy Cameron. Previously, Billie Eilish starred as Sally in last year's live-streamed version of The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Danny Elfman has composed over 100 feature film scores, including music for 17 Burton films such as Batman, Edward Scissorhands, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Alice in Wonderland, as well as Gus Van Sant's Academy Award-winning films Good Will Hunting and Milk.

He released his latest album Bigger. Messier. in August this year, which includes a collection of remixes based on his 2021 second solo studio album Big Mess. The composer also played a viral set at Coachella during the summer topless, featuring a rendition of his most widely-known work, The Simpsons theme.

Phoebe Bridgers performed a riveting set at Fairview Park in Dublin in June, which featured an appearance from trad legend Martin Hayes. The singer also covered the Carpenters’ 1972 hit 'Goodbye to Love', which appeared on the Jack Antonoff–produced soundtrack for Minions: The Rise of Gru earlier this year.
