"For The Record: Tarantino" features a band of performers, curated from LA's unique talent landscape, composed of movie and TV stars, Broadway alums and indie recording artists. This unlikely crew of talent has come together to create a unique rock-n-roll concert journey into the mind of one of today's most prolific filmmakers. A mash-up of Tarantino directed films brought to life through the classic soundtracks of "Reservoir Dogs," "Pulp Fiction," "Jackie Brown," "Kill Bill Vol. 1" and "Kill Bill Vol. 2," "Death Proof," "Inglourious Basterds" and "Django Unchained."
The cast features Rumer Willis, celebrating the 20th Anniversary of the film her father starred in, "Pulp Fiction." Rounding out the cast is Tarantino's "Death Proof" star Tracie Thoms, Janel Parrish (Pretty Little Liars), Lindsay Pearce (Glee), Lindsey Gort (Carrie Diaries), Ginifer King (Haunted Hathaways, Broadway's Gypsy), Jesse Campbell (The Voice), Reign Morten (General Hospital), Constantine Rousouli (Broadway's Wicked), Patrick Mulvey (Broadway's Billy Elliot), Rogelio Douglas Jr. (Broadway's In The Heights), David St. Louis (Broadway's Jesus Christ Superstar), Corbin Reid (Broadway's American idiot), Joanna Jones, Danielle Truitt, Maiya Sykes, Laura Sperazza, Dionne Gipson, Jason Paige, James Byous, Ciaran McCarthy and Steve Mazurek.
Created by Shane Scheel, Christopher Lloyd Bratten and Anderson Davis, "For The Record: Tarantino" reinvents cabaret for a new generation. To help lead the elevated production, two-time Emmy Award winner Travis Hagenbuch will serve as Lighting Designer and Emmy Award winner Matthew Steinbrenner will oversee the Art Direction. Producers have chosen longtime Broadway performer Justin Bohon (The Book of Mormon, 9 to 5, LES MISERABLES) to choreograph the show. Christopher Lloyd Bratten, serves as Music Director and acclaimed Broadway Fight Director J. David Brimmer adds live fight sequences. Directed and Adapted by Anderson Davis. Produced by Shane Scheel for Ad Astra Live.
When the series originally began in a 60-seat bar space in Los Feliz, the show creators had no idea that it would grow to be such a huge hit. And while popularity grew in Los Angeles, performances around the country only added to the buzz abroad, with shows in New York, Ace Hotel in Palm Springs, and SXSW in Austin, TX. This summer, "For The Record: Tarantino"will be featured at the Montreal Jazz Festival.
The elevated DBA experience will accommodate significantly larger crowds - more than 220 people per show - and enhance production values across the board. Besides more seats, DBA offers completely unobstructed views, improved sound and lights, an expanded 6-piece band, tiered staging, gourmet snack offerings, and a cocktail program crafted specifically for the production by esteemed mixologists Dave Kaplan and Alex Day of Proprietors LLC (co-owners of Honeycut and New York's famed Death & Company).
As a series, For The Record has been featured on CBS, Fox, ABC, CW, and NBC. The Los Angeles Times described For The Record as "searingly visceral... the movies sing!" Entertainment Weekly said the show was "cutting edge," and Los Angeles Magazine said, "Not only has For the Record cemented its position as one of the most entertaining shows in Los Angeles, it also has the distinction of being one of the most daring."
