JAWS: Live on Stage (w/ Kevin Smith)
There is a creature still alive today. It has survived millions of years of evolution without change. Without passion. And without logic. It lives to kill. A mindless, eating machine. It will attack and devour ANYTHING. It's as if God created the devil, and gave him...JAWS!
That's right, folks, on Friday, August 21, Atlantic Highlands is Amity Island and Smodcastle Cinemas is the good ship Orca, when Alex Dawson and company return to the filmhouse with JAWS! Not just in 3D, but LIVE! ON STAGE! Starring KEVIN SMITH at Matt Hooper!
Based on the bestselling novel by New Jersey native Peter Benchley and the hit film by Steven Spielberg, Raconteur Radio's blood-tingling presentation about a killer white with the cunning of a U-boat commander stars JEFF MASCHI as both Sheriff Brody, a cop looking for redemption, and Captain Quint, a grizzled veteran of both war and water; KEVIN SMITH as oceanographer Matt Hooper, a soft-handed man desperate to show the world (and Quint) he's butch enough to take down the big fish; and CARLYLE OWENS as Mayor Vaughn, a smarmy local politician who refuses to acknowledge the threat, and assorted other characters. Plus, a special intro by WILL ROGERS, writer, producer, and audio creator best known for co-hosting the popular paranormal, film review, and true crime comedy podcast Guide to the Unknown.
Run time: 1 hr. With costumes, props, theatrical lighting, music, and 100 + sound effects. Trust me, friends, this is your favorite movie like you've NEVER seen it before.
In memory of MICHAEL JARMUS, who performed with Raconteur Radio almost a thousand times over the last twenty years. One hundred and forty three DIFFERENT shows. He was Gandalf, Darth Vader, Ebeneezer Scrooge, Doctor Watson, Professor Dumbledore, and Captain Nemo. He was Yoda, Smaug, King Arthur, Blofeld, and the Wizard of Oz. He was Frankenstein, Ash, Sallah, and the guy who wanted the beaches to stay open. He was the voice of Raconteur Radio. He was last here on Easter Eve for our live presentation of Die Hard (with Kevin Smith as Hans Gruber); he brought the house down, all 225 of them, when he put on a long, blonde wig to briefly play Karl, Gruber's right hand man, shouting, then, in German, and waving a film-accurate machinegun prop as he "shot the glass."
RUN TIME: 90 min
