SUMMARY:Hallowe’en Spooktacular
DESCRIPTION:Bob Baker Marionette Theater brings back this all-ages Angeleno tradition\, encouraging guests to make their own holiday memories with an entire season of puppetry and one-of-a-kind events. \nSince the 1980s\, Angelenos and tourists alike have incorporated the show into their Halloween celebrations. From a tap-dancing Frankenstein to visitors from outer space to a friendly People Purple Eater\, there is no spooky show quite like BBMT’s Spooktacular. This year’s production also includes an ode to Día de los Muertos\, which celebrates the Theater’s community in a distinctly Bob Baker way. First created for BBMT’s reimagined ¡FIESTA! show in 2022\, marionette calaveras honor and celebrate the theater’s ancestors\, family\, and Los Angeles community. \nIn addition to the rest of the season\, a sensory-friendly version of Hallowe’en Spooktacular will be offered on Saturday\, Oct. 10\, at 10:30 a.m.

SUMMARY:Hercules vs Vampires
DESCRIPTION:This Halloween\, LA Opera joins forces with the United Theater on Broadway for an only-in-L.A. collision of opera\, orchestra\, cult cinema and unabashed camp. \nHercules vs. Vampires is a musical reimagining of Mario Bava’s 1961 sword-and-sandal cult classic Hercules in the Haunted World\, starring former Mr. Universe Reg Park—an early mentor to Arnold Schwarzenegger—alongside the legendary Christopher Lee (Lord of the Rings\, Dracula\, Star Wars). \nPatrick Morganelli’s original score adds live singers and orchestra to Mario Bava’s gloriously lurid fantasy\, making an already over-the-top movie even more over the top. It’s high art meets high camp\, with equal parts beef and cheese. \nJoin LA Opera at L.A.’s favorite Gothic haunt\, the historic United Theater on Broadway\, for two performances\, on October 30 and 31. Halloween night performance includes an afterparty and costume contest where you could win big: first place takes home a whopping $10\,000\, with cash prizes for the runner-up and third place as well. \nMusic and adapted libretto by Patrick Morganelli \nRunning time: one hour and 15 minutes\, with no intermission \nSung in: English with subtitles
