LBC presents Louis: A Silent Film with Live Musical Performance by Wynton Marsalis and Cecile Licad
May 25 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
$93.22 – $175.82
LOUIS – A Silent Film – Live on Tour takes preeminent jazz musician Wynton Marsalis to the road with renowned classical pianist Cecile Licad for a unique, live musical performance to accompany the presentation of LOUIS – A Silent Film. LOUIS was written and directed by Dan Pritzker and shot by Oscar®-winning cinematographer, the late Vilmos Zsigmond and pays homage to Louis Armstrong, Charlie Chaplin, beautiful women and the birth of jazz. The film, set in 1907 New Orleans, tells the story of a young boy (Louis) born into poverty, who dreams of playing the trumpet. Marsalis was brought on board to oversee the music for the film and immediately became an integral part of Pritzker’s vision.
This live touring show will treat audiences to a modern version of an original immersive-style experience, blending a live musical performance by Marsalis and Licad, along with an 11-piece jazz ensemble conducted by Andy Faber. Captivating storytelling and classic visuals captured in LOUIS complete this (not so) silent film experience.
Film is rated R for nudity and sexual content.
