THE VAMPIRE LESTAT: ONE NIGHT ONLY LIVE – PREMIERE EVENT PERFORMANCE TO MAKE STREAMING DEBUT ON AMC+ ON AUGUST 23: “AMC Global Media today announced that The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only LIVE, the standing-room-only performance celebrating AMC’s premiere of its newly-released The Vampire Lestat at New York City’s iconic Beacon Theatre last month, will make its streaming debut on AMC+ on Sunday, August 23. Additionally, highlights from the electrifying premiere event, featuring original songs from series composer Daniel Hart and performed by Sam Reid, will be screened for fans in Hall H at Comic Con International on Friday, July 24.
Following the screening, cast and executive producers from The Vampire Lestat will take the Hall H stage for the first time to reflect on the series’ jaw-dropping season finale, premiering Sunday, July 19 on AMC and AMC+.
Officially Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes with a perfect 100% critical score, The Vampire Lestat follows Lestat (Reid) on an electric multi-city tour while he’s haunted by “muses” from his wild and rebellious past. As his band’s popularity and star power rises, so does Lestat’s influence over vampires and humans alike, leaving others to contend with Lestat’s power in the face of the Great Conversion, an unnatural surge in the vampire population.
The Vampire Lestat and the previous two seasons of Interview with the Vampire are currently streaming on AMC+.”
