John Carpenter sounds live in London!!!

sci fi london, john carpenter, escape from new york
Okay, Halloween II is on 31st, but we are wriggling with excitement at the prospect of the gig on 30th October: Escape from New York

This absolute cult classic stars Kurt Russell in, perhaps his most identifiable role, the eyepatch wearing, gun toting, Snake Plissken. The film, inspired by Carpenter’s reaction to the Watergate Scandal was at first deemed, according to Carpenter, as "too violent, too scary, too weird" to make.

The original score, composed by John Carpenter and Alan Howarth will be performed in live and in full by Alan alongside the film. It will be followed by a special live set by Alan to include a re-working of the score incorporating modern electronic technologies and new beats.

Over 15s only, under 16s accompanied by an adult.
