Danny Elfman, who wrote the film’s songs (music and lyrics), composed its original score and was the original singing voice of Jack Skellington says:

Being able to perform ‘Nightmare’ live last year, in synch to the movie with a full orchestra was such a thrill. But having Catherine O’Hara, Ken Page and Paul Reubens to perform with me really made it a unique and magical experience. I’m happy to bring it to our amazing Los Angeles audience one more time.

Catherine O’Hara, the original voice of Sally adds:

I’m proud to once again be part of such a fun evening celebrating Danny’s musical genius.

The original voice of Oogie Boogie, Ken Page says:

There is nothing that I can compare with stepping out onto the Hollywood Bowl stage to a sold out house with the great LA musicians playing Danny Elfman’s brilliant score of THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS and happily recreating OOGIE BOOGIE’S song ‘LIVE’… except doing it again!

A cast of singers and special guest artists will be performing the film’s acclaimed songs live.  Conductor John Mauceri, Founding Director of the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, will once again be leading the full orchestra and choir performing the film’s classic score and songs live to picture.
