[edit] Plot Description

This concert film follows British rock group The Cure through their performance at the classic Théâtre antique d'Orange in the French countryside (Orange, Vaucluse), on August 9 and 10, 1986. Band members Robert Smith (Vocals & guitar), Simon Gallup (Bass guitar), Porl Thompson (Keyboards, guitar and saxophone), Boris Williams (Drums), and Lol Tolhurst (Keyboards) make their way through 23 songs. At the start of the concert, Gallup pulls off Smith's wig to reveal a new closely cropped hairstyle.

[edit] DVD release

Smith has mentioned on the band's official website that The Cure in Orange will be released on DVD sometime in 2010[1], as it was only made available on VHS and Laserdisc. The US edition of the Laserdisc suffers from the audio and video being significantly out of sync. It is unknown whether it will also be released on Blu-Ray, like The Cure's more recent release, Trilogy.
