Dracula: The Spanish Version

The LA Opera and the United Theater on Broadway (formerly the Ace) once again join forces for a chilling mash-up of live music and film. Hole up in the gothic auditorium for a screening of the 1931 Spanish-language production of Dracula, complete with a live accompaniment from the LA Opera Orchestra and a new score by lauded composer Gustavo Santaolalla. While the Bela Lugosi classic was being shot, a forgotten-until-recently version in Spanish, starring Carlos Villarias, was filmed at night on the very same set.
