DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, October 30 · 7:00 PM · Crosstown Theater \nSink your teeth into a Halloween-week classic on Thursday\, October 30\, 2025\, 7 pm at the Crosstown Theater. F.W. Murnau’s Nosferatu\, the shadow-soaked masterpiece that helped define horror on screen\, returns in a special presentation featuring a brand-new live score by General Labor. \nThe Memphis ensemble will perform an immersive\, modern accompaniment that threads eerie minimalism\, pulsing percussion\, and textural electronics through Murnau’s iconic imagery\, breathing new life into Count Orlok’s creeping silhouette and the film’s haunted coastal vistas.

Not rated. Approx. 90 min. \n$10 at the door

SUMMARY:Kafé Kirk: Kirk Whalum & Lindsey Webster
DESCRIPTION:Join Grammy-winning saxophonist Kirk Whalum for Kafé Kirk\, an ongoing jazz series in Crosstown Theater featuring musical and spiritual collaborations with special guest artists. This concert will feature legendary musician Lindsey Webster. \n\n \nGet Tickets Now \nLindsey Webster:\nA charismatic and stunning artist\, Lindsey Webster has established herself as a rarity in the world of contemporary jazz. With a soulful\, authentic\, and effortless voice\, she has successfully shaken up the male- and instrumental-dominated genre\, carving a unique path of her own. Soultracks once declared\, “If Carole King and Sade had a kid\, she would be Lindsey Webster.”\n  \nA native of Woodstock\, NY\, Webster grew up surrounded by music\, listening to her “loving hippie parents'” collection of Jimi Hendrix\, Beatles\, and Elvis Costello LPs. She was first a cellist\, studying at the prestigious Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts\, before transitioning to vocals. She also has a surprising background in cellular and molecular biology and once worked as an EMT and firefighter. Webster’s music is deeply personal and inspired by her belief that “everything is energy\,” a philosophy that guides her to focus on her spirit and create music that is honest and authentic.\n\nIn 2016\, Webster made history with her original song “Fool Me Once\,” becoming the first vocalist to hit #1 on the Billboard Contemporary Jazz charts since Sade in 2010. She held the top spot for four weeks\, beating Sade’s three-week run. The winning combination of Webster and her long-time musical partner and former husband\, pianist Keith Slattery\, has resulted in two Billboard #1s and eight Top 10s on the Billboard charts. \nCrosstown Theater \nSunday\, September 28\, 6PM \nGet Tickets Now

Since that debut\, Lyle has kept a high standard for 30-plus years\, and has successfully maintained a flourishing\, always-evolving career.
