Candlelight ’Twilight’ viewing with live band coming to downtown Bellingham
Mount Baker Theatre is bringing a new twist to a popular Washington-based vampire movie franchise: Twilight.
The popular books-turned-movie series will be playing at the Mount Baker Theatre with a live ensemble, playing the movie’s score live along with the film this September, as part of the first-ever Twilight In Concert national tour.
“Set in an enchanting candlelit setting, Twilight In Concert offers a unique opportunity for audiences to relive the iconic story in a cinematic live-to-film experience with a sensational live band. Musicians will perform the beloved score in perfect synchronization with the original movie, presented in its entirety on a massive cinema screen,” a news release from the theater states.
“Audiences will be completely captivated by the magical atmosphere with more than one thousand twinkling candles illuminating the grand stage, creating an ambiance that sets the tone for a truly romantic evening,” the news release states.
The live score will be played by a 12-piece ensemble or “outstanding rock and orchestral musicians,” according to the theater’s website.
“Twilight in Concert offers a unique opportunity for fans to relive the story that put Forks, Washington on the map, re-ignited the classic werewolf versus vampire debate, and inspired a devoted fan base in a cinematic live experience like no other,” the news release states.
The one-day-only show is at 3 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 14. Tickets are already on sale through the theater’s website and cost $46-$69.25 per ticket.
Mount Baker Theatre is at 104 North Commercial St. in downtown Bellingham.
