One Night Only: “The Show”

Tickets are on sale now for “The Show”, the new fantasy feature from Alan Moore; one-night-only in theaters nationwide on August 26th. 

A new fantasy mystery feature from the extraordinary mind of legendary graphic novel writer Alan Moore and directed by Mitch Jenkins (Show Pieces, Prisoners of Paradise), The Show will open in movie theaters nationwide for one night only on August 26, 2021. Following the feature presentation, fans will be treated to an exclusive interview with writer Alan Moore and director Mitch Jenkins.

The darkly playful and uncompromisingly original film stars Tom Burke (Mank, War & Peace), Siobhan Hewlett (Sherlock, Canterbury Tales), Ellie Bamber (Nocturnal Animals, Tony and Susan), Sheila Atim (Girl from the North Country, The Underground Railroad), Christopher Fairbank (Pirates of the Caribbean, The Fifth Element) and Alan Moore himself.

Fletcher Dennis (Burke), a man of many talents, passports, and identities, arrives in Northampton – a strange and haunted town in the heart of England as dangerous as he is. On a mission to locate a stolen artifact for his menacing client, Fletcher finds himself entangled in a twilight world populated with vampires, sleeping beauties, Voodoo gangsters, noir private eyes, and masked avengers.

He quickly sinks into a bizarre and delirious black hole, that is hidden just beneath the surface of this seemingly quiet town. Soon enough, Fletcher discovers that dreams and reality have been blurred and there might no longer be a real world to go back to…Welcome to The Show.

Andrew Broder’s score to The Show features an opening theme by Mara Carlyle, and a fantasy cast to sing the songs penned especially for the soundtrack by Alan Moore — including Beth Gibbons (Portishead), Gruff Rhys (Super Furry Animals), Alan Sparhawk (Low), Andrew Hung (F-ck Buttons), Tunde Adebimpe (TV On The Radio), and Alan Moore as Mr. Metterton.

Stay tuned for our full review coming soon!
