Pet Shop Boys toured the world in 1991 with their Performance show. Described by Melody Maker as 'an inspired glorious collision of theatrical imagination, cinematic gestures, art school nerve, topical gravity and unapologetic indulgence', the show was conceived by controversial director David Alden and designed by innovative theatrical designer david Fielding with choreopgraphy by Jacob Marley. Performace was filmed over three nights at Birminghan NEC and stars Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe performing a selection of their favourite and most famous songs with a troupe of dancers and singers in extravagant and sometimes disturbing theatrical settings. The complete show is presented here for the first time on DVD.

DVD includes optional live show commentary 'In conversation with Chris Heath', rehearsal footage, overture and stills gallery.
