SUMMARY:Carbon Arc: Nadja (4k Restoration)
DESCRIPTION:Vampire Nadja launches a feud against her father Dracula’s murderer\, starting with seducing his daughter. A shimmering restoration of a cult gem brought to you by Carbon Arc Cinema! \n“We have an allergy to sunlight. My whole family.” Merging elements from Dracula’s Daughter (1936) with André Breton’s surrealist novel Nadja (1928)\, and fusing shimmering black-and-white 35mm with hallucinatory Pixelvision video\, Michael Almereyda’s acclaimed cult film centers on New York-based vampire Nadja (Elina Löwensohn) as she draws close to her twin brother Edgar (Jared Harris) following their father’s death at the hands of Dr. Van Helsing (Peter Fonda). Edgar’s private nurse (Suzy Amis)\, Van Helsing’s nephew Jim (Martin Donovan)\, and Jim’s wife (Galaxy Craze) are entangled in the story as the vampire killer pursues “the fiend” from Manhattan to Transylvania. \nExecutive produced by David Lynch\, this original director’s cut of Nadja was digitally from the only extant element\, the 35mm answer print. Director Almereyda on the birth of Nadja: “David and Mary understood that the movie\, following Breton’s lead\, was intended as a kind of collage\, in the tradition of a surrealist exquisite corpse\, though we were equally indebted to Roger Corman\, shooting fast and cheap and fitting the story into just a few locations. Low as the budget was\, investors faded out when we lost a particular cast member a few weeks away from our start date\, and David bravely decided to pay for the film out of his own pocket—an act of generosity that still startles me.”

SUMMARY:Queendom Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:Free Admission | Registration Required (Link to register here) \nFilm in Russian with English subtitles \nJoin us for a special screening of the acclaimed documentary Queendom\, presented by the Russian Canadian Democratic Alliance (RCDA). First time in Halifax! \nGena\, a queer artist from a small town in Russia\, stages radical performances in public that become a new form of art and activism – and put her life in danger. \nIn bold defiance of Russia’s anti-LGBTQ laws\, Gena Marvin\, a queer 21-year-old performance artist\, transforms the streets of Moscow into surreal and radical public art. Her performances are a striking fusion of self-expression and protest – risking arrest\, violence\, and exile. \nQueendom (an SXSW Official Selection) follows Gena’s journey from a small Russian town to the center of international queer resistance. \nThis screening celebrates queer creativity\, courage\, and defiance around the world – and stands in solidarity with those fighting for freedom under repression.

SUMMARY:Elevator Theatre presents Spring Awakening
DESCRIPTION:Spring Awakening – October 8-25\,2026 \nSpring Awakening is a groundbreaking rock musical about a group of young people coming of age in a world that refuses to speak openly about desire\, identity\, and fear. Set in late 19th century Germany but driven by a contemporary pulse\, this 8-time Tony Award-winning musical explores the collision between youthful longing and rigid authority.  With a propulsive\, emotionally charged score\, Spring Awakening fuses folk-inspired rock with fearless storytelling. Urgent\, intimate\, and unflinching\, it captures the intensity of adolescence\, the cost of silence\, and the power that comes from finally being heard. \n  \nContent Warning: Spring Awakening contains mature and potentially distressing content\, including sexual content\, sexual violence\, abortion\, suicide\, self-harm\, physical abuse\, strong language\, and themes of grief\, trauma\, repression\, and adolescent mental health. Viewer discretion is advised. \n  \nSpring Awakening Performance Dates and Times \nOctober 8\, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. (Opening) \nOctober 9\, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. \nOctober 10\, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. \nOctober 11\, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. \nOctober 12\, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. (Industry Night) \nOctober 14\, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. \nOctober 15\, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. \nOctober 16\, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. \nOctober 17\, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. \nOctober 18\, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. \nOctober 21\, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. \nOctober 22\, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. \nOctober 23\, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. \nOctober 24\, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. \nOctober 25\, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. (Closing)
