SUMMARY:Crosstown Arts Film Series Presents: Creepshow
DESCRIPTION:A murdered patriarch\, a mysterious meteor\, a vengeful husband\, a creature beneath the stairs\, and an impossibly persistent army of cockroaches come together in this gleefully macabre horror anthology. Directed by George A. Romero and written by Stephen King\, Creepshow pays colorful tribute to the lurid EC horror comics of the 1950s. With its stylized visuals\, gruesome practical effects\, dark humor\, and memorable cast\, the film delivers five wicked tales in which cruelty\, greed\, and bad behavior receive appropriately monstrous rewards. \nTickets

SUMMARY:Fright-Tober: Cure
DESCRIPTION:A Tokyo detective investigates a series of seemingly unrelated murders\, each committed by a different person who can offer no clear explanation for the crime.

SUMMARY:Hannibal Buress
DESCRIPTION:Hannibal Buress\nThe Crosstown Arts Theater \nSunday\, October 4th\, 2026  \nDoors open at 6:00 PM | Show starts at 7:00 PM \nOrchestra Seating $42 in advance (plus fees) \nGeneral Admission $35 in advance (plus fees)  \nTickets go on sale June 30th! \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \n\n\nComing to the Crosstown Theater stage is comedian Hannibal Buress! \n\n\n\nHannibal Buress is a powerhouse of comedy\, television\, and film. From writing for Saturday Night Live and 30 Rock to starring in blockbusters like Neighbors and Spider-Man\, Buress has spent over two decades cementing his status as an entertainment icon. Don’t miss a night of sharp wit and brilliant storytelling from one of the industry’s most versatile creators. \n\nAbout Hannibal \nFrom within the bustling heart of the Windy City\, a comedian named Hannibal Buress embarked upon his journey. The year was 2002\, the location\, the Big Muddy Room at Southern Illinois University. Guided by the wisdom of his friend Chidi and sharpened in the fires of Tony Trimm’s “Sunday School sessions\,” young Buress was prepared to take the comedy world by storm. \nIn 2006\, he emerged from the shadows\, performing at Montreal’s ‘Just for Laughs’ New Faces\, an event that led to his first international appearance on “Late Night with Jörgen Raymann” in Holland. From that moment\, he continued to grow\, creating a series of successful stand-up specials including “Animal Furnace\,” “Live From Chicago\,” “Hannibal Takes Edinburgh\,” “Comedy Camisado\,” and “Miami Nights”. \nFate intervened in 2009\, when a last-minute booking on “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” led to a meeting with Seth Meyers. This encounter gave him the opportunity to write for the legendary show “Saturday Night Live.” It was there\, my young turtles\, where Buress had one sketch air – a moment he credits to the creativity of his cousin Percy. He cherishes the memory of watching Rihanna uttering his lines in the “Shy Ronnie” sketch. After a season there\, he moved to “30 Rock\,” filling the space left vacant by the departure of Donald Glover. \nIn the realm of film\, Buress has proven his versatility\, showcasing his talents in “Neighbors\,” “Neighbors 2\,” “Baywatch\,” “Daddy’s Home\,” “Spiderman: Homecoming\,” “Spiderman: Far From Home\,” and “Tag.” He also provided a memorable performance as Lincoln the dentist on “Broad City” and lent his voice to animations like “The Secret Life of Pets” and “The Angry Birds Movie.” \nFrom 2009 to 2017\, Buress held court at the “Comedy at the Knitting Factory\,” his charm and wit making an indelible mark on late-night television\, featuring on shows such as “David Letterman\,” “Conan\,” “Stephen Colbert\,” and “The Daily Show with Trevor Noah.” \nIn 2022\, he underwent a transformation\, shedding his skin to become Eshu Tune in the world of music. His rhythmic anthems like “Veneers remix” with Danny Brown and Paul Wall\, the lively bowling song “1-3 Pocket\,” and the meticulously crafted “I Lift Weights” echo through the streets. This endeavor was made possible through collaborations with creative minds like Kiefer\, Tru\, Eshu Tune\, Wahsabi Papi\, Kenny Segal\, Eryn Allen Kane\, and Haile Supreme. Through these transformations\, Hannibal Buress remains a true warrior in the world of entertainment.

This concert will feature prolific pianist and composer Kayla Waters. \nAbout Kayla Waters \nKayla Waters\, is a passionate pianist\, composer\, producer and curator of PuriKey Productions. Planted in her creative giftings\, Kayla digs her feet deep into holy ground with Anew\, a harmonious and plush artistic offering. With grandeur\, this musically rich work illustrates the unearthing and unlocking of fresh terrains of life with spiritual “keys” of splendor. Scribed with love\, Anew is a stunning addition to her pianistic anthology following Presence\, Coevolve\, and Apogee. With aplomb\, Kayla is elated to be an official Yamaha Artist and a voting member of the Recording Academy. \nSweetly kissed with success\, Kayla beautifully made history by becoming the first female pianist to reign atop the contemporary jazz charts for multiple weeks and is a seven-time Billboard and Mediabase number one artist. Robed with eminence\, Kayla has been blessed to play with a bouquet of music legends including Stevie Wonder\, Patrice Rushen\, The Jacksons\, Regina Belle\, Avery*Sunshine\, Sheila E.\, Dave Koz\, Jonathan Butler and her cherished father {iconic jazz saxophonist}\, Kim Waters. Kayla has bountifully shared her heartfelt artistry all over the globe and across continents {North America\, Europe and Africa} at countless jazz festivals\, theaters\, prestigious performing arts centers\, national television platforms\, and even playing within the oceans and mountains of God’s creation as her most sacred stage. \nAs Keeper of the Keys\, Kayla eloquently embraces her pure gift as a musical scribe. She has a lofty understanding of key signatures and orchestral textures that gingerly make her mellifluous compositions whisper softly on the heartstrings of all who listen. Kayla’s artistic pieces {often resembling mini-symphonies} musically paint the fragrance of heaven and her lush harmonies create an abundance of sweet-smelling aromas. Although Kayla holds a piano performance degree from Howard University {Summa Cum Laude}\, she audaciously professes the majestic beauty of the Holy Spirit is what truly anoints her fingertips at the piano. Spiritually grounded\, Kayla revels in sharing her magnanimous gifts faithfully {and fruitfully} on every stage she graces. God’s presence is the undulating rhythm and holy abode of her heart.

SUMMARY:Crosstown Arts Film Series: No Country for Old Men
DESCRIPTION:No Country for Old Men (2007\, dir. Joel & Ethan Coen)\nThe Coen Brothers’ Academy Award–winning adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s novel stands as one of the most unsettling American films of the 21st century. Set against the bleak landscapes of West Texas\, No Country for Old Men follows intersecting lives pulled into a spiral of violence after a drug deal goes wrong\, along with the unstoppable force that follows in its wake. \nAnchored by Javier Bardem’s chilling portrayal of Anton Chigurh\, the film explores fate\, chance\, and moral erosion with an almost mythic inevitability. Sparse dialogue\, oppressive silence\, and sudden brutality create an atmosphere of constant dread. Sheriff Ed Tom Bell’s weary reflections frame the film as a lament for a world that no longer makes sense to those who once believed they understood it. Grim\, precise\, and hauntingly modern\, No Country for Old Men demands the focus and scale of a theatrical viewing.

SUMMARY:Crosstown Arts Film Series Presents: Dr. Strangelove
DESCRIPTION:Stanley Kubrick’s Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb is one of cinema’s sharpest and most enduring satires\, a Cold War nightmare spun into pitch-black comedy. Released at the height of nuclear anxiety\, the film follows a chain reaction of military blunders and political absurdities that threaten to end the world\, not with heroism\, but with bureaucratic confusion and human folly. \nAnchored by Peter Sellers in multiple unforgettable roles\, Dr. Strangelove walks a razor’s edge between the ridiculous and the terrifying\, exposing how fragile the systems of power can be when placed in the hands of flawed individuals. Kubrick’s stark visual style and relentless sense of irony turn global annihilation into something both hilarious and deeply unsettling. \nJoin us at Crosstown Arts Theater on Thursday\, April 23 at 7pm for this landmark film that remains as biting\, relevant\, and uncomfortably funny as ever.

SUMMARY:Crosstown Arts Film Series: Under the Silver Lake
DESCRIPTION:David Robert Mitchell’s Under the Silver Lake is a woozy neo-noir that sinks into the dream logic of Los Angeles\, peeling back its sunlit surface to expose the network of symbols\, conspiracies\, and secret messages that seem to pulse beneath the city. At the center is Sam\, a drifting young man whose obsession with hidden meaning escalates after a mysterious woman vanishes from the apartment complex where he lives. \nOn its face\, the film plays like a contemporary detective story\, complete with codes\, clues\, and shadowy figures moving through Hollywood’s forgotten edges. Beneath that structure\, however\, is a meditation on loneliness\, fixation\, and the way pop culture imprints on the psyche. Sam’s journey is less about solving a mystery and more about clinging to a narrative that gives his life form\, direction\, and a sense of cosmic importance. \nThe undertones of Under the Silver Lake swirl with cultural decay and generational drift. The film is haunted by the ghosts of classic cinema and old Hollywood glamour\, but the glitter has curdled into an atmosphere of disillusionment. The soundtrack\, the billboards\, the movie posters\, the disposable media\, all function as hieroglyphs in a culture obsessed with being noticed yet terrified of fading away. \nMitchell’s film balances humor with dread\, and beauty with absurdity. It invites the viewer into a conspiracy that may be real or may be merely a projection of Sam’s desperation to feel connected to something larger than himself. In the end\, Under the Silver Lake becomes a strange\, melancholic portrait of a city where everyone is waiting to be discovered\, and where being lost can feel like a secret code all its own.

SUMMARY:Crosstown Arts Film Series: Titane
DESCRIPTION:Julia Ducournau’s Titane is a ferocious fusion of body horror\, melodrama\, and black comedy\, an audacious work that violently fractures genre in order to rebuild it into something startlingly intimate. Winner of the Palme d’Or\, the film follows Alexia\, a go-go dancer with a titanium plate fused into her skull after a childhood car accident\, as she drifts from mechanical desire toward a strange and desperate search for connection. \nBeneath the chrome and gasoline sheen\, Titane operates as a film about transformation\, physical\, psychological\, and emotional. Its most shocking moments are not merely provocative but pointed. Ducournau confronts the viewer with bodies as mutable machines\, identity as performance\, and gender as both cage and refuge. The film’s violence is handled with a deadpan absurdity that gradually softens\, revealing tenderness in places most films would not dare look. \nThe heart of Titane lies in its undertones\, loneliness and projection\, the craving for recognition\, the reshaping of self in order to be loved\, the quiet ache of longing that pushes its characters into wild contortions. What begins as industrial eroticism melts into an unconventional family drama\, where vulnerability becomes more shocking than carnage. \nTitane is a film of contradictions. It is grotesque yet delicate\, cynical yet yearning\, metallic yet warm. It tests boundaries not for shock’s sake but to expose the human impulse to find belonging\, even if it means becoming something unrecognizable. The result is a fearless and deeply strange meditation on bodies\, identity\, and the slender thread between monstrosity and love.
