Get into the spooky spirit with a cinematic classic brought to life. On Saturday, October 10, the New Orleans Film Society and Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra reunite for Nosferatu (1922): A Gothic Symphony at Jefferson Performing Arts Center. F.W. Murnau’s silent horror film will unfold on the big screen as the LPO performs Hans Erdmann’s haunting score live onstage. Following last year’s sold-out presentation of Frankenstein, the collaboration offers another immersive meeting of film and music. The evening is part of NOFS/365, the Film Society’s growing initiative to present distinctive cinematic experiences year-round. Tickets can be purchased here.
Jefferson Performing Arts Center is located at 6400 Airline Drive
