Rex Orange County at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Vancouver – Gallery

Published

On November 25, rising UK indie-pop star Rex Orange County brought his Finally: A Theatre Tour for the first of two sold-out nights at the Queen Elizabeth theatre in Vancouver, BC.

Rex Orange County, aka Alexander O’Connor, delivered an unforgettable performance, bringing his latest album, The Alexander Technique, to life with a mix of theatrical storytelling, heartfelt melodies, and fan-favourite hits.

The show kicked off with “Alexander,” a reflective opener that saw Rex on stage alongside an actor playing a doctor. With the curtains drawn, the intimate staging set the tone for the evening, pulling the audience into the personal narrative of his newest album. Moments later, Rex amped up the energy, stepping off the stage to interact with fans while performing “Therapy.” Watching the crowd light up as he strolled through the aisles was a highlight, even for those in the upper seats.

The concert was a journey through seasons, with stunning visuals transitioning from a serene Japanese garden in spring to a warm, autumnal glow. Rex’s band—Jim Reed, Hugo Piper, Michael Underwood, and Joe Arksey—was phenomenal, especially during “Guitar Song,” where the saxophone added an extra layer of magic.

A standout moment came when Rex asked everyone to put away their phones and simply be present.

Rex closed the night with “Pluto Projector,” pouring his heart into the song. It was a beautifully raw, emotional end to an evening that felt as personal as it was powerful.
