SF Sketchfest 2020

It's now a tradition. For the 3rd year in a row, the Chapel becomes a mix of the Roadhouse and The Black Lodge, now with a bit of Oz thrown in. Join the Red Room Orchestra for a 30th anniversary celebration of the music from David Lynch's film "Wild at Heart" plus a new round of the music of "Twin Peaks" featuring Marc Capelle's all-star ensemble recreating the beloved classic instrumental scores and vocal soundtrack tunes from both projects. Featuring the music of Angelo Badalamenti, Elvis Presley, Them, Chris Isaak, Roy Orbison, Koko Taylor, Gene Vincent and much more.

With Tom Ayres, Allyson Baker, Marc Capelle, Eli Crews, Toby Dammit, Bart Davenport, Karina Denike, Tom Griesser, Dina Maccabee, Michael Urbano, and special guests including Margaret Cho, Dave Hill, Beth Lisick, ​Kristin Sobditch, ​​​Kelley Stoltz and "Twin Peaks" cast members Sherilyn Fenn ("Audrey Horne") and Ray Wise ("Leland Palmer"). Dress as your favorite character from the Lynch world and step into another dimension.

Formed by San Francisco producer and multi-instrumentalist Marc Capelle in 2017, the Red Room Orchestra is a collective of popular, jazz, classical, and electronic composers and performers who’ve played and recorded alongside the Bad Seeds, the Plastic Ono Band, Cibo Matto, Oingo Boingo, Sonic Youth, CAKE, American Music Club, Lou Harrison, the Steve Reich Ensemble, the Nels Cline Singers, Rodriguez, Iggy Pop, Tune-Yards, Bill Frisell, and more. They’ve offered live renderings of the music of David Lynch’s Twin Peaks, reinterpretations of the soundtracks of Wes Anderson’s Rushmore and The Royal Tenenbaums, and for SFFILM they composed and performed original scores for the short films from Stephen Parr’s Oddball Films archive.
