/// MISSION BRIEFING

"The Overture" is a 2011 short film and promotional, theatrical video by Panic! At The Disco, directed by Shane Drake to introduce the Vices & Virtues era. Featuring members Brendon Urie and Spencer Smith, the film serves as a symbolic, theatrical journey of dropping baggage, moving forward after band member departures, and embracing a new, dramatic, and "hellish" artistic direction.
