National Geographic LIVE presents Ocean Soul



Next Wednesday, February 8th, 7:00 pm at the INB Performing Arts Center, take a trip under the sea, as National Geographic Live presents Brian Skerry and the film Ocean Soul. Voyage across the oceans with one of National Geographic's most seasoned photographers and discover a vast, hidden world beneath the waves. Using his camera to communicate, Brian Skerry has spent more than 10,000 hours underwater telling the oceans' stories. His images celebrate the mystery of the depths, and offer portraits of creatures so intimate they sometimes appear to have been shot in a studio. Skerry dives eight months of the year, often in extreme conditions beneath Arctic ice or in predator-infested waters, and has even lived at the bottom of the sea to get close to his subjects. Ticketswest has your seats.


The Phantom Of The Opera with live music by the Spokane Symphony this Saturday at the Fox



The Spokane Symphony, in association with Spokane International Film Festival, present a symphonic screening the 1925 classic flick The Phantom of the Opera, with LIVE music arranged by silent film pianist Rick Friend. Friend and the Spokane Symphony, with Assistant Conductor Jorge Luis Uzcátegui, will provide the sound for this black-and-white masterpiece of silent film. It will plays on the big screen at Martin Woldson Theater at The Fox this Saturday, February 4 at 7:30pm.

The Phantom of the Opera screenplay was an adaptation of Gaston Leroux's 1910 novel Le Fantome de l'Opera, starring Lon Chaney, Sr. in the title role of the deformed Phantom who haunts the Paris Opera. It was the perfect vehicle to showcase the dramatic and makeup talents of Chaney, Hollywood's leading character actor, billed as the "Man of a Thousand Faces." Along with the 1923 version of The Hunchback of Notre Dame, The Phantom of the Opera is considered by many to be the best of Chaney's work.

Tickets are available at the Box office, or by calling 509-624-1200. They are also available online at www.spokanesymphony.org or at all TicketsWest outlets.
