Michael Shapiro, Composer (see below for a “Meet the Composer” opportunity!)
Live orchestra accompanies the classic 1931 film, starring Boris Karloff.

Monsters. Boris Karloff. Gothic architecture. Who needs fireworks on Independence Day weekend when you could have such a classic horror film accompanied by our all-star orchestra?

Did you know that the original 1931 Frankenstein was produced without a score? Commissioned in the early 2000s to write music for the nearly century-old film, Michael Shapiro added emotional dimensions to the film— along with plenty of goosebumps!

Mark Gould, Conductor
