Presented by Eighth & Eight Creative Spaces
Going beyond the showtunes and Great American Songbook standards typically showcased in his popular movie history presentations, classic film scholar MICHAEL VAN DEN BOS swings the spotlight onto traditional, grassroots and bluesy musical performances. It’s a Hollywood Hootenanny looking at how folk, blues, country, and American roots music have been presented in classic and contemporary movies, along with vintage concert films, as always projected on the big screen in this show. Featured musicians and actors include Joan Baez, The Band, Keith Carradine, Ray Charles, Bob Dylan, John Lee Hooker, Kate Hudson, Joaquin Phoenix, Elvis Presley, Rolling Stones, Sons of the Pioneers, Sissy Spacek and more!
Run time: 150 minutes, including a 20-minute intermission
