About this performance

John Cusack returns to one of his most beloved roles in this unique live experience combining film screening with personal storytelling. High Fidelity, the 2000 cult classic based on Nick Hornby's novel, follows record store owner Rob Gordon as he revisits his past relationships and grapples with love, loss, and the perfect mixtape. The film became a cultural touchstone for music lovers and romantics alike, capturing the essence of vinyl culture and the way music shapes our most intimate memories.

This isn't just a movie screening — it's an intimate evening with Cusack himself, who will share behind-the-scenes stories, creative insights, and personal reflections on the making of this iconic film. Expect candid anecdotes about working with the ensemble cast, the film's exploration of male vulnerability, and how the story resonates differently decades later. Music enthusiasts will particularly appreciate Cusack's insights into the film's legendary soundtrack and the role of record collecting in the digital age.

The Winspear Opera House provides an elegant setting for this special presentation, with its world-class acoustics ensuring every word from Cusack comes through crystal clear. The venue's intimate yet grand atmosphere creates the perfect backdrop for both the film screening and the conversational elements, allowing the audience to feel connected to both the movie and its star.
