The Plano Symphony Orchestra will continue its 41st Season, Out of this World, with Ghostbusters, The Movie live in concert. From Schirmer Theatrical, patrons will experience Ivan Reitman's two-time Oscar-nominated film, screened live as the PSO performs Elmer Bernstein's Grammy-nominated score. Led by Assistant Conductor Shira Samuels-Shragg, the evening wouldn't be complete without Ray Parker Jr.'s chart-topping theme song “Ghostbusters!” Also a part of the evening, the fan group Ghostbusters: Texas Rangers Division will be in attendance and dressed up like the actual Ghostbusters for photos.
“I'm so excited to bring Elmer Bernstein's Ghostbusters score to life with the wonderful PSO! This film is such a fun classic, and I'm delighted we get to bring the vivid, live-orchestra version to our North Texas community,” said Shira Samuels-Shragg.
Sponsored by HilltopSecurities, Ghostbusters, The Movie live in concert will be performed at the Eisemann Center at 8 PM on Saturday, November 18, 2023. Tickets range in price from $37-$103 and can be purchased through the Plano Symphony Orchestra Box Office (972-473-7262/planosymphony.org). The Charles W.
