Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers – Live

It was back on the big screen – this time with the live soundtrack played by the City of Bradford Brass Band.

‘It’s the wrong trousers, Gromit! And they’ve gone wrong!’

Nick Park’s animated adventure is one of the best-loved British films of all time – and we were delighted to have brought it back to the big screen with a live soundtrack.

The Wrong Trousers follows hapless Wallace and his loyal beagle in their battle against evil penguin Feathers McGraw, capped by one of the most thrilling chase sequences in movie history.

This Oscar-winning family favourite boasts a brilliant bass-band soundtrack written by Julian Nott – and the City of Bradford Brass Band played it live alongside the movie at this fun-filled family concert.

The Big Brass Blowout

Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers – Live is part of The Big Brass Blowout, a weekend-long celebration of the best in brass.

About Wallace & Gromit

Created by Nick Park, Wallace & Gromit are true British cultural icons. From their first outing in A Grand Day Out to their latest Vengeance Most Fowl, this animated duo have been a staple of film and TV for decades.

The duo are brought to life by Academy Award- and BAFTA Award-winning Aardman – and you can explore the history of Wallace & Gromit in Bradford’s National Science and Media Museum.
