?THE DREAM IN CAPTIVITY? to Captivate Downtown Los Angeles

One of a Kind, One Night Only Music and Art Showcase Arrive at Historic Variety Arts Theater

Los Angeles, California (PRWEB) November 21, 2012

On December 7th, a true accumulation of local talent will come together to put on 'THE DREAM IN CAPTIVITY', a new concert at the Variety Arts Theater.

The multimedia production will fuse the musical arrangements of CLIFF DWELLER with the paintings of artist Oliver Bernsen. A string quartet and live band will perform a collection of post-classical songs reminiscent of a film score, entirely written and arranged by CLIFF DWELLER. Meanwhile, Bernsen's large-scale oil paintings will line the theater's periphery, enclosing the audience within an imminent world of moments never intent on being captured.

The cinematic compositions are coincidentally appropriate for the show's host venue, the historic Variety Arts Theater ? most recently utilized this past October by Paranormal Activity producer Jason Blum. The space lends its own rich character to the world of forgotten romanticism.

Produced by Ella Hatamian, THE DREAM IN CAPTIVITY is an unparalleled fusion of theatrics. More information and tickets can be found on the official website: http://www.thedreamincaptivity.com
