THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME silent film with LIVE ORCHESTRA (Early Show)
SATURDAY OCTOBER 31 • 3PM • ALL AGES
A Spooktacular Premiere at Luminary Arts Center.
MINNEAPOLIS, MN! This Halloween weekend, Leo Presents invites audiences to experience a breathtaking new production of THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME silent film with LIVE ORCHESTRA at Luminary Arts Center in Minneapolis's North Loop
Home to the Minnesota Opera and other acclaimed acts, Luminary Arts Center will serve as the stage for this extraordinary cinematic concert featuring the 1923 Universal Studios monster silent film. Crafted by local composer Philip Shorey, the production combines an original score with an international 50-piece orchestra, choral ensemble, Renaissance band, theatrical special effects, and a rock ’n roll inspired light show.
Based on Victor Hugo's timeless 1831 gothic novel, The Hunchback of Notre Dame tells the story of Quasimodo, the bell-ringer of Notre Dame Cathedral, and his enduring love for the beautiful dancer Esmeralda. Set against the tragic backdrop of 15th-century Paris, this dark romance explores themes of compassion, prejudice, heroism, and virtue.
This immersive presentation brings new life to a beloved story, combining the power of orchestral performance with the magic of cinema.
Shorey has built an international reputation for reimagining classic silent films for modern audiences. His productions have headlined major music festivals and sold-out concert halls throughout Europe and the United States. This Halloween marks his return to Minneapolis for the world premiere of his latest original work: THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME.
Audience Attire: Guests are encouraged to embrace the spirit of the evening by dressing in their favorite Renaissance-inspired costume attire.
Parking: Convenient event parking is available directly across the street from the venue for $6, making for an easy and enjoyable night out in Minneapolis's vibrant North Loop district. Street parking is also free after 6pm.
