ABOUT THE CONCERT
An Immersive Concert Experience
Glatz Loft Concerts presents Edward Scissorhands in Concert Live to Film, the quirky, modern fairytale with GRAMMY-winning composer Danny Elfman’s ethereal musical score performed live in sync to film by a full orchestra, under the baton of conductor Evan Mitchell.
In one of the pair’s earliest collaborations, Danny Elfman’s enchanting score combines with Tim Burton’s distinctive stylistic choices to create the film’s iconic atmosphere.
Directed by Burton (Beetlejuice, Disney Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas), the 1990 film centres on Edward (Johnny Depp), a gentle artificial man with scissors for hands. Orphaned and unfinished by his creator, The Inventor (Vincent Price, in his final role), Edward longs for connection and is coaxed into joining the town’s pastel suburban community after being discovered by Peg (Dianne Wiest), a warm-hearted Avon saleswoman. At first a sensation amidst the uniformity, his uniqueness eventually sparks jealousy and suspicion among the neighbours. Along the way, Edward develops a tender romance with Peg’s daughter Kim (Winona Ryder).
Edward Scissorhands is celebrated for its poignant exploration of acceptance, enduring love, and the challenges of being misunderstood.
