London Olympics 2012 Opening Ceremony Live Stream. The Olympics will be at the hands of artistic directors Danny Boyle and Stephen Daldy – award-winning British Film Directors. Boyle said: We have called the show The Isles of Wonder, based on Caliban’s speech in The Tempest. ‘Be not afeared the isle is full of noises.
It is a wonderful speech about the wondrous beauty of Caliban’s island and his deep, deep devotion to it. Daldy said: All the ceremonies have to be seen as one journey that ends with the closing of the Paralympics, a journey which will celebrate who we are, who we were, and who we wish to be, he said.
The title Danny has selected allows us to celebrate the rich heritage, diversity, energy, inventiveness, wit and creativity that defines what is the British Isles. By choosing a work by Shakespeare as its inspiration, the London Olympics 2012 Opening Ceremony provides a unique opportunity to showcase Britains cultural heritage.
The ceremony is considered one of the highlights of the Olympiad with an expected global television audience of at least a billion viewers. A specially commissioned 23-ton bell, the largest in Europe, will be rung at 9pm on July 27 to mark the formal start of the opening ceremony.
For thos e inside the Olympic Stadium, things kick off at 8:12 pm beginning with the parade of atheles from more than 200 competing countries, the raising of the Olympic flag, speeches delivered by Lord Coe who chairs the Olympic Organising Committee and Jacques Rogge who is the president of the International Olympic Committee.
It will culminate with her Majesty The Queen declaring the Games open and the entry of the Olympic torch for the lighting of the cauldron. Details of how the cauldron will be lit, and by whom, remain under wraps. Again, let’s all watch London Olympics 2012 Opening Ceremony Live Stream.
