Leonard Cohen’s Songs from the Road

Laemmle Theatres and Emerging Pictures are pleased to present LEONARD COHEN’S SONGS FROM THE ROAD, screening only three times: Thursday, September 9th at 7:30 and Saturday and Sunday, September 11th and 12th at 11 a.m. at five Laemmle venues: the Claremont 5/Claremont, Sunset 5/Los Angeles, Playhouse 7/Pasadena, Town Center 5/Encino and Monica 4-Plex/Santa Monica.

In 2008, following the celebration of his 40th year as a Columbia recording artist and coinciding with his induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Leonard Cohen thrilled his fans by announcing his first tour dates in 15 years. Cohen went on to play the most prestigious and beautiful venues in virtually every corner of the globe, mesmerizing and charming audiences with performances that were hailed as some of the best of his career. LEONARD COHEN’S SONGS FROM THE ROAD features a dozen of Cohen’s most famous songs from that world tour, captured during performances at auditoriums, arenas, and stadiums from Tel Aviv to London to the California desert, all filmed in stunning high-definition.

“When legend Cohen takes to the stage, it’s no less than a cultural event of Biblical dimensions.” – The Independent
