LOUIS, a silent feature film directed by Dan Pritzker and starring Shanti Lowry and Jackie Earle Haley will premiere in US cities in late August with live musical accompaniment by Wynton Marsalis, renowned pianist Cecile Licad and an 11-piece all-star jazz ensemble, including Sherman Irby, Victor Goines, and Wycliffe Gordon. Marsalis will play a score comprised primarily of his own compositions. Licad will play the music of 19th century American composer L.M. Gottschalk. The group will perform live with the film in a series of special performances in New York City, Chicago, Washington DC, Detroit, and Philadelphia August 25 - 31.
