Based on Tim Burton’s 1984 short film, Frankenweenie follows young Victor Frankenstein as he goes about his childhood making short films with his four-legged canine friend, Sparky. When Sparky is killed by a car, a distraught Victor resurrects him. Soon other children start resurrecting their own pets, and a horde of undead creatures wreaks havoc, spurring the adults to plot Sparky’s permanent demise. This black-and-white stop motion Frankenstein adaptation features a score by frequent Burton collaborator Danny Elfman and is filled with homages to the classic horror films Burton grew up loving, resulting in a scary and sweet fairytale that will dazzle children and charm adults.

With soaring harmonies, expressive violin, and rich acoustic textures, Telephone Tag creates a warm and immersive blend of contemporary folk-pop that is both intimate and emotionally resonant. Their music weaves together heartfelt lyrics, lush violin lines, and driving guitar rhythms, creating songs that feel cinematic yet deeply personal.
Fresh off a major UK tour opening for 80s pop icons Johnny Hates Jazz (of “Shattered Dreams” fame), the couple continues to build an international following. Ryan’s career highlights include opening for Paul McCartney in London’s Hyde Park, while both artists have performed across the globe—from Dubai to stages throughout Europe and the U.S.
Their recent EP and new singles showcase a sound that balances modern indie-folk with melodic pop sensibilities—music that invites audiences to lean in and truly listen. Whether delivering tender ballads or uplifting anthems, Telephone Tag’s sound is layered, dynamic, and filled with genuine feeling.

Atwater Village Theatre

Even in our sunset years, there is still time enough for love. Open
Fist Theatre Company presents Shakespeare’s eternal
tale of lovers caught between their families and their love—with a
new twist. What happens when Romeo and Juliet fall in love at 75
instead of 14? In this new production, the Bard’s language remains
intact, but Shakespeare’s Verona has been transformed into Verona
Village, a South Florida retirement community for active seniors.
There, star-crossed lovers Romeo and Juliet must navigate romance,
family interference and social expectations later in life —
revealing how Shakespeare’s words resonate differently when spoken
by older adults. Open Fist @ Atwater Village

In person: filmmakers Kevin Jerome Everson and Claudrena N. Harold conversation, moderated by filmmaker Cauleen SmithSince 2013, artist Kevin Jerome Everson and author and historian Claudrena N. Harold have cooperated on a series of lyrical short films—13 to date—that explore Black intellectual, social, and political life at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, where both are professors. Collectively titled Black Fire, these works highlight the spaces where Black students have studied, learned, and organized through the years, including the school's student-run newspaper and a bus stop that became a locus for collective action.
Through short films spotlighting figures such as Paulette Jones Morant, one of the first Black woman scholastic athletes at UVA, and Vivian Gordon, the director of UVA’s Black Studies program from 1974–1980, Black Fire creates significant space for otherwise under-the-radar figures. Employing... interviews and reenactment, often casting their students as performers, Everson and Harold's films bring the history of UVA, as well as the historical experiences of Black students and faculty across the US, into meaningful conversation with the present day. &nbsp; &nbsp; Filmmakers Kevin Jerome Everson and Claudrena N. Harold appear in conversation after the films, moderated by filmmaker Cauleen Smith. &nbsp; &nbsp; Special thanks to Madeleine Molyneaux, Sam Raphael, and Now Instant Image Hall.

Wilshire Ebell Theatre

Dustin Hoffman, one of the most acclaimed actors of our time, is also one of the most compelling and unpredictable figures in American culture. His arrival in Hollywood ushered in a new approach to filmmaking. A two-time Oscar winner, he &nbsp;helped to obliterate the dividing line between the "character actor" and "leading man" archetypes. His memoir LOOK AT ME includes tales from Hoffman's almost -six-decade career and his unforgettable roles in The Graduate, Midnight Cowboy, Tootsie, Rain Man and beyond. Among the stories is an unexpected clash with Steve McQueen, encounters with legends like Laurence Olivier, Maggie Smith, Mike Nichols, Robert Duvall, Arthur Miller and Gene Hackman.
Ariel Levy last appeared on our stage in a conversation with Alex Van Halen. She is a longtime staff writer for The New Yorker and also co-authored Hoffman's memoir.Virtual viewing begins November 20 and remains available for five days after VOD. Signed book included with ticket. Sales end November 19. Visit livetalksla.org for details.
