At the The Theatre at Ace Hotel

Camp, humor and horror collide in one of the greatest sequels ever.

Break out the hairspray and spend Halloween with Elsa Lanchester and Boris Karloff! This year, our hugely popular annual celebration of horror and live music at the breathtaking Theatre at Ace Hotel presents film director James Whale's chilling The Bride of Frankenstein, with one of the most iconic "wedding" scenes in cinematic history.

As this 1935 horror classic plays out larger than life on the silver screen, the magnificent musicians of the LA Opera Orchestra, conducted by Jenny Wong, perform Franz Waxman’s groundbreaking original soundtrack score live. It's the ultimate cinematic experience!

Oct. 28 performance tickets include admission to The Theatre at Ace Hotel's Shuga Shack Halloween Party.
All ticketholders 21 years and older are invited to stay after the performance for the party from 9:00pm - 2:00am. Costumes are encouraged.

Listen to a bit of Franz Waxman's spooky score below:

"Waxman’s superb seminal score for The Bride of Frankenstein is as iconic as the movie itself... What sets his effort here apart was his success, his brilliance in speaking to the complex elements of the film’s narrative; the horror, the grotesque, the sinister and the comedic. That he was able to succeed on all counts reveals genius."
