Dreamshow is a live DVD by Siouxsie, released in 2005. It was filmed at the Royal Festival Hall in London in October 2004. The songs are performed on stage with the Millennia Ensemble orchestra. The setlist incorporates music from her bands Siouxsie and the Banshees and the Creatures.

Budgie, drummer and composer in the two bands, was the musical director on this tour; he re-orchestrated the songs with Siouxsie. As stated in the interviews present in the bonus of the DVD, this concert represents a musical achievement for Siouxsie and Budgie as they had always wanted to perform on stage with Leonard Eto, a Japanese Taiko drummer previously of the Kodo Drummers. Siouxsie added that this show was a dream come true as they also played with a fifteen piece orchestra including two percussionists, a brass section and a string section. Budgie concluded the interview stating that the collaboration with Eto and an orchestra, was two dreams over two nights: "it can't be better than that".[1] This was the last time he played with Siouxsie as the couple would split up in 2007.[2]

Upon its release, the DVD was a commercial success reaching the number one position on the UK music DVD chart.[3]
