REDCAT Celebrates Halloween With Special Screening of THE GOLEM 10/30 & 10/31
REDCAT (the Roy and Edna Disney/CalArts Theater) celebrates Halloween with a theatrical screening of The Golem, one of the earliest and surely creepiest horror films in cinema history, accompanied by live music from tricked-out ghouls under the direction of Brian LeBarton, best known as Beck's prodigious music director. The Golem with a live score by Brian LeBarton takes place on Friday, October 30, 2009 and Saturday, October 31, 2009 at 8:30pm.
The 1920 touchstone of Expressionism tells the Eastern European Jewish legend of the Golem--an oversize clay statue brought to life by a Prague rabbi to do muscle work and help protect the city's Jews. It doesn't take long, though, before the plan goes horribly wrong... With director Paul Wegener as the Golem, cinematography by Karl Freund (Metropolis) and amazing sets by architect Hans Poelzig. LeBarton's costumed band, meanwhile, features analog keyboards, electronic treatments, cello, and special guest Carla Azar on drums and percussion.REDCAT (the Roy and Edna Disney/CalArts Theater) opened by CalArts in 2003, introduces diverse audiences, students and artists to the most influential developments in the arts from around the world, and gives artists in this region the creative support they need to achieve national and international stature. REDCAT is the newest partner in an international network of adventurous art and performance centers, which together are playing a vital role in the evolution of contemporary culture. REDCAT is a center for experimentation, discovery, and lively civic discourse.
REDCAT is located at the corner of W. 2nd and Hope Streets, inside the Walt Disney Concert Hall complex (631 West 2nd Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012).For tickets and additional information, call REDCAT's Box Office at 213-237-2800, or visit www.redcat.org.Watch an excerpt from The Golem here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VBm4P9GIJk&feature=related.
