Orchestra to play score as BMC screens 'Raiders'

BREVARD — Brevard Music Center will present Raiders of the Lost Ark in Concert at its open-air lakeside Whittington-Pfohl Auditorium at 8:30 p.m. Saturday, July 20.

Relive the magic of Steven Spielberg’s blockbuster 1981 adventure film, “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” with John Williams’ epic score performed live to picture by a full symphony orchestra, under the direction of conductor Nicholas Buc. Movie screens will be situated on both the WPA main stage as well as the WPA lawn for the concert. Popcorn, beverages and casual concessions fare will also be available, plus there will be an appearance by Indiana Jones at the BMC photo booth that evening.

A smash hit upon its release, “Raiders of the Lost Ark” launched the popular Indiana Jones series and helped turn Harrison Ford into a film icon. Described as “one of the most deliriously funny, ingenious, and stylish movies ever made,” “Raiders of the Lost Ark” has remained an iconic favorite of fans for its thrills, chills and adventure. 
Tickets to most Brevard Music Center’s Summer Festival performances start at $20 on the lawn. Seating at Whittington-Pfohl Auditorium, BMC’s 1800-seat, open-air auditorium, is free for children under 17 with a paying adult and students 18 and older with a valid ID.
