Toyota Oakdale Theatre
It’s been four decades since the world entered Jim Henson’s maze alongside Sarah to save her baby brother from Jareth, the Goblin King. Four decades has passed since the musical fantasy film featuring David Bowie’s immortal vocals and a very young Jennifer Connelly achieved cult-classic status around the globe, and the iconic soundtrack became more than a film soundtrack, but the soundtrack of many a childhood.
This calls for celebration - and there is hardly a better way to do so than with a nostalgic trip into the maze once more! That’s right, Wallingford, a fantastical journey unlike anything you’ve ever experienced is headed your way, because Jim Henson’s 'Labyrinth In Concert' is coming to the Toyota Oakdale Theatre on 24 September 2026!

Labyrinth had a way of captivating people from all walks of life around the globe.
For some, it was the maze the 16-year old Sarah had to solve in 13 hours to save her baby brother from the Goblin King, Jareth, and for others it was the magical touch. Some people were identifying with the themes of growing up, and the reminder of the tough choices we are faced with in life; and others admired the timeless soundtrack featuring David Bowie’s timeless vocals and Trevor Jones’ sweeping score. The fact remains, everybody adored the magical and almost otherworldly atmosphere of Jim Henson’s wondrous creation, and it is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year.
For this incredible milestone-birthday, Black Ink Presents, together with The Jim Henson Company, have created an unparalleled, once-in-a-lifetime experience that will bring Labyrinth back to life like never before - projected onto a large HD cinema screen, while the iconic score is being performed by a star-studded live band in sync with the film!
The massive 60-date North American leg of the 2026 tour of Jim Henson’s Labyrinth's 40th Anniversary In Concert is slated to kick off in early September 2026 in Ottawa, Ontario, with stops in all the major cities, including Syracuse, Albany, Huntington, Cleveland, Nashville, Chesterfield, Colorado Springs, Fresno, Los Angeles, San Antonio, Roanoke, and Richmond. The tour will be wrapping up in late November 2026 in Concord, New Hampshire.
Expect it all: a feeling of nostalgia as you step into the world of Jareth and meet the dwarf Hoggle, the troll Ludo, an anthropomorphic fox terrier named Sir Didymus, and his noble steed, the Old English Sheepdog Ambrosius; an enhanced, organic sound as the stellar band delivers the iconic music with precision; a fantastical journey through an epic story that captivated the entire world; dressing up to truly become part of the immersive experience; a fierce reminder of David Bowie’s absolute musical genius; and an evening that you’ll remember for the rest of your life.
