About this concert
Pet Shop Boys will return to the Royal Opera House for four special shows in July 2018, two years after their debut performances at Covent Garden.\nThe duo will return with their 'Inner Sanctum' show, which sold out in record time in 2016 and was staged by Es Devlin and choreographer/director Lynne Page.\n'We were thrilled to bring electronic music into the grandest musical space in London for four memorable nights in 2016', said Pet Shop Boys. 'Since then we’ve often been asked if we’re planning a return to the Royal Opera House and we’re excited to confirm that we’ll be back in July.'\nThe show received rave reviews in its first outing, hailed by the Guardian as a 'hit-packed night at the opera' and by the Evening Standard as 'an arena-worthy show in a relatively small space, complete with crazy outfits and enough lasers to down the Millennium Falcon'.

El mejor concierto de los Pet Shop Boys en Lima, Perú, fue un evento inolvidable a orillas del mar. Esta icónica banda británica, formada por Neil Tennant y Chris Lowe en 1981, ha dejado una huella indeleble en el mundo de la música electrónica y el pop. Desde sus inicios en Londres, los Pet Shop Boys se destacaron por su enfoque innovador y su estilo único, mezclando el pop con la música electrónica y el teatro.
Su concierto en Lima fue una muestra de su extraordinaria habilidad para combinar música, arte visual y espectáculo. Frente a un mar que servía como telón de fondo natural, la banda desplegó un repertorio que incluyó sus grandes éxitos como "West End Girls", "It's a Sin" y "Always on My Mind", así como temas de sus álbumes más recientes.
La importancia de los Pet Shop Boys en el mundo musical radica no solo en sus melodías pegajosas y letras profundas, sino también en su influencia en la cultura pop y la música electrónica. Han sido pioneros en incorporar elementos teatrales en sus actuaciones y en fusionar géneros musicales, creando un sonido distintivo que ha inspirado a numerosos artistas.
El concierto en Lima no fue solo una presentación musical, sino también una celebración de la carrera de una banda que ha sabido reinventarse constantemente, manteniendo su relevancia en la industria musical a lo largo de las décadas. Fue una noche mágica que quedó grabada en la memoria de todos los asistentes, un tributo a la perdurable influencia de los Pet Shop Boys en el mundo de la música.

Pet Shop Boys Biography
Pet Shop Boys (Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe) are the most successful duo in UK music history. Since signing to Parlophone Records in1985, they have achieved 42 Top 30 singles in the UK including 22 Top 10 hits and four number ones. They have released 12 studio albums all of which have made the UK Top 10 as well as album charts around the world.
In 2000 they received the Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Contribution to British Music and at the 2009 BRIT Awards they were presented with the award for Outstanding Contribution to Music.
As writers, producers and remixers, Tennant and Lowe have collaborated, remixed or written for a wide range of artists including Dusty Springfield, Lady Gaga, Liza Minnelli, Madonna, David Bowie, Yoko Ono, The Killers and Girls Aloud.
Pet Shop Boys have also written the West End musical Closer to Heaven with playwright Jonathan Harvey, produced in 2001 by the Really Useful Group. In 2004 they performed their soundtrack to the classic silent film, Battleship Potemkin, with the Dresden Sinfoniker in a free concert in Trafalgar Square presented by the ICA; they have since performed it at various spectacular outdoor events in Germany, Spain and the UK. In 2011, Pet Shop Boys composed a ballet, The Most Incredible Thing, based on the Hans Christian Anderson story of the same title. The project was a collaboration with choreographer Javier De Frutos and Britain’s leading dance theatre, Sadler’s Wells. The ballet won the Evening Standard Theatre Award and was given a second season at Sadler’s Wells the following year.
In 2012 Pet Shop Boys appeared before a worldwide television audience during the London Olympics’ closing ceremony. Two years later, Tennant and Lowe's collaboration with Alan Turing biographer Andrew Hodges, A Man From The Future, received its world premiere as a Late Night Prom concert at the Royal Albert Hall with the BBC Concert Orchestra, the BBC Singers and narrator Juliet Stevenson.
In their live shows over the last 20 years, Pet Shop Boys have created an original and influential style of pop musical theatre, collaborating with directors, designers and artists including Derek Jarman, David Alden and David Fielding, Zaha Hadid, Sam Taylor-Wood and Es Devlin. Their 2009-2011 arena tour, Pandemonium, was described in a five-star review in The Times as “the ravishing pop spectacle of the year”.
Pet Shop Boys released their last album Electric in 2013, produced by Stuart Price. The album received great critical acclaim and gave Pet Shop Boys their highest album chart positions for 20 years in the UK and USA. The accompanying Electric tour subsequently visited 38 countries over three years and received ecstatic audience and critical reactions.
Pet Shop Boys’ new album, Super, was also produced by Stuart Price and will be released worldwide on April 1. In July Pet Shop Boys will play an exclusive four-date residency entitled Inner Sanctum at the Royal Opera House in London. The concerts will be staged by designer Es Devlin and choreographer Lynne Page.
