Breaking The Fourth Wall (Live From The Boston Opera House), the momentous new live Blu-Ray / DVD from Roadrunner Records’ group Dream Theater is set to premiere on Palladia and VH1 Classic on Friday, December 19th at 9 PM, local time. Additional info and local listings can be found here.  

Breaking The Fourth Wall made a spectacular debut atop SoundScan’s Top DVD Music Video and Top Music Video charts earlier this year and follows the Grammy-nominated group's 2013 self-titled LP which debuted atop Billboard’s Hard Rock Albums chart and at #7 on the overall Billboard 200.

Breaking The Fourth Wall (Live From The Boston Opera House), the live Blu-Ray / DVD set captures Dream Theater’s unprecedented performance from the Boston Opera House on March 25th, 2014.  Produced by the band’s own John Petrucci, filmed and directed by Pierre and François Lamoureux, and mixed and mastered by Richard Chycki, Breaking The Fourth Wall (Live From The Boston Opera House) is over 2 hours in length, showcasing the special evening, which featured guest performances from The Berklee College of Music Orchestra and Choir. The collection, which comes in multiple configurations including Blu-Ray, a 2-DVD set, and a webstore deluxe exclusive  Blu-Ray/3-CD set with poster, are all available now via the Roadrunner Records webstore.

Dream Theater donated a portion of the proceeds from the release to the Dream Theater Scholarship Fund at Berklee, which impacts the many incoming students from around the world who cite Dream Theater as a prime influence for applying.

"The relationship between Berklee and Dream Theater is tremendously important," says Mark Campbell, vice president of enrollment at Berklee. "Their extraordinarily creative sound and virtuosity makes them powerful representatives of and advocates for a Berklee education."
