Disney and Pixar’s beloved animated film “Coco” is coming to the largest movie screen on Long Island, accompanied by a live 20-piece band — and Greater Long Island readers have a chance to experience it for free.
The Staller Center for the Arts at Stony Brook University is giving away three family four-packs of tickets to its special live-to-film screening of “Coco” on Friday, Oct. 30, at 6:30 p.m.
And this isn’t your typical night at the movies.
As the film plays on the big screen, a live 20-piece musical ensemble will perform the movie’s Academy Award-winning score, bringing its memorable music to life.
The film follows Miguel, a young boy who dreams of becoming a musician, on a colorful journey through the Land of the Dead, where he uncovers his family’s history and discovers the importance of remembering loved ones.
Timed for Halloween weekend and Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, the screening offers families a chance to experience the colorful, music-filled adventure in a whole new way.
