Bruce Springsteen World Premiere!
October 29, 2010
IN PERSON: E Street Band drummer Max Weinberg & director Thom Zimny for post-show conversation
For one night, DOC NYC moves into the grand Ziegfeld Theatre in midtown Manhattan to present the world premiere of an extraordinary concert film. Darkness on the Edge of Town captures a performance by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band that no one has seen. In December, 2009, the band set up at the historic Paramount Theatre in Asbury Park, NJ and performed – just for themselves and no audience – the entire 1978 album of Darkness on the Edge of Town. Springsteen’s manager Jon Landau has said this presentation “best captures the starkness of the original album.”
