The world premiere live-in-concert screening will see the iconic movie - starring Audrey Hepburn - shown in full, while it is accompanied by Henry Mancini's Oscar-winning score performed by an orchestra and a choir.

Looking forward to the production, Lucy Noble, the Director of Events at the Royal Albert Hall, said: "This iconic film is famous for many things: Audrey Hepburn's peerless sense of style, the headily romantic atmosphere, an exceptional cat, and - of course - Henry Mancini's timeless score, including the classic song 'Moon River'.

"This unique event will bring the music centre-stage, quite literally, as it is performed live and in full by an orchestra and choir.

"This is 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' as it has never been seen - or heard - before, so grab a pastry and a 'huckleberry friend' and head for the Royal Albert Hall in June."

The 1961 comedy-drama is often cited as one of the greatest movies ever made and the event has been created to celebrate Mancini's score at one of the world's most historic venues.
