BAZ Up Your Weekend with Cabaret Performances Featuring Music from the Films of Baz Luhrmann and John Hughes

February 10, 2015 by Lamb L.

Now playing Thursday nights at the DBA Hollywood, “For The Record: BAZ” is an exploration of the music used in THE GREAT GATSBY, ROMEO+JULIET, MOULIN ROUGE, and STRICTLY BALLROOM. This is a unique and engaging performance that is sure to capture any music fans attention, even if they weren’t wild about the films the songs came from. The stories of these four sets of lovers is heartbreaking and beautifully staged. The run has been extended by popular demand, and shows sell out about a week in advance so be sure to get your tickets early through dbahollywood.com.

Also at The DBA Hollywood Friday through Sunday nights is “For a The Record: Dear John Hughes” featuring songs from THE BREAKFAST CLUB, PRETTY IN PINK, FERRIS BEULLER’S DAY OFF, and several other beloved 80s classics.

Yôko Yamanaka’s second feature follows a 21-year-old Japanese woman with erratic humor as she ghosts one boyfriend after another. A beautician with little commitment to her work and no real desire to achieve anything, she burns every bridge, accumulating broken hearts in her wake. "Yuumi Kawai is immediately magnetic…Yamanaka’s work defies binaries… The film and its lead feel[s] pulsatingly alive." ~ Variety #DesertOfNamibia #WorldwideWednesdays #yokoyamanaka #yuumikawaii #山中瑶子 #河合優実
