Halloween in Hollywood: Halsey and Catherine O’Hara to Alternate as Sally in ‘Nightmare Before Christmas’ at Hollywood Bowl.
Halsey joined the production of “The Nightmare Before Christmas” coming to the Hollywood Bowl for just three nights prior to Halloween, as the role of Sally on the first two nights of the engagement, then the movie’s original voice actor, Catherine O’Hara takes it over on the third.
The dates Halsey will appear are Oct. 27-28.
On Oct. 29, O’Hara will not only play Sally but also step into the role of Shock, which will be sung on the previous two nights by Riki Lindhome.
Although it’s a short part in the live-to-picture production, Sally has been a plum one for pop stars in recent years. Phoebe Bridgers did it last December in London for a two-night “Nightmare” concert engagement at London’s OVO Arena Wembley. The last time a concert engagement of “Nightmare” happened in Los Angeles, two years ago at Banc of California Stadium, Billie Eilish was in the cast to sing “Sally’s Song” for that two-night stand.
Other performers have been announced.
Fred Armisen will singi the role of Lock. Ken Page returns as Oogie Boogie.
Of course Danny Elfman will reprise the starring role of Jack Skellington, as he has done at the Bowl for many years.
“The Nightmare Before Christmas” has been presented at the Bowl in 2015, 2016 and 2018. The Banc of America show in 2021 included Paul Reubens in one of his final live appearances.
This concert version is produced by Laura Engel and Richard Kraft of Kraft-Engel Productions and Alison Ahart Williams, Tim Fox & Georgina Ryder of AMP Worldwide in association with Disney Concerts.
John Mauceri will return as the conductor of a full orchestra playing Elfman’s score live-to-film. Also returning is Sandy Cameron as guest violinist for the “Skeleton Trio Entr’acte.” Randy Crenshaw, Angie Jarée, Baraka May, Greg Proops and Fletcher Sheridan will complete the live voice cast.

LA Loves “Taste of a Kiss” with World’s #1 limoncello Pallini
“Taste of a Kiss” World’s #1 limoncello Pallini Celebrates 150 Years
Pallini Limoncello, the world’s #1 limoncello, proudly announces the launch of its new global campaign, “Taste of a Kiss.” Timed to coincide with the brand’s 150th anniversary, this sensory-led campaign invites consumers to rediscover the magic of limoncello – crafted with passion, kissed by the Amalfi sun, created for both timeless enjoyment and modern mixology.
The campaign’s creative centerpiece, “What Does a Kiss Taste Like,” will run throughout 2025 and will be brought to life through digital storytelling, influencer collaborations, and curated lifestyle content that celebrates Italian passion and flavor.
Pallini, founded in 1875, remains a proudly family-owned company and is now led by CEO Micaela Pallini, a fifth-generation member of the founding family. With more than 15 years at the company, she previously served as Director and Head of Production. Micaela, who holds a Doctoral Degree in Chemistry, is the first woman to lead the company and is honored to guide Pallini through this historic milestone.
“This campaign is a love letter to our Italian roots,”
Micaela Pallini
“It reflects everything Pallini stands for – joy, beauty, togetherness, and timeless taste. Sharing our 150th anniversary as the world’s leading limoncello is both humbling and exhilarating.” The campaign was developed by Luther DSGN, a rising Rome-based agency known for its creative expertise in lifestyle branding, visual storytelling, and experiential design.
At the heart of the campaign is the Pallini Spritz—now among the top three spritz-style cocktails served in the U.S. Elegant, light, and refreshingly simple (3 parts Prosecco, 2 parts Pallini, 1 part water, served over ice in a large wine glass), the cocktail is quickly becoming a seasonal favorite across bars, rooftops, and at-home occasions. Pallini is supporting this momentum with retail cross-merchandising initiatives, encouraging consumers to bring the spritz ritual home.
Pallini Limoncello is distributed across the U.S. by Lucas Bols, the Dutch spirits company known for nurturing heritage cocktail brands. “Pallini is a rare brand that blends craftsmanship, legacy, and modern appeal,” said Brett Dunne, Managing Director, USA and Canada, The Lucas Bols Company. “We’re excited to help expand its reach across the U.S., bringing the spirit of the Amalfi Coast to American consumers and bartenders.”
Pallini Limoncello is available nationwide in fine wine and spirits retailers, as well as leading bars and restaurants across the U.S.

There’s a new contender in the adult beverage game, and it’s already claiming victory. Meet Vodkade, the first-of-its-kind, hand-crafted, canned vodka cocktail made for those who don’t just play — they play to win at fun.
Born from the idea of creating a cocktail that tastes like a sports beverage — but with a kick — it’s the ultimate fusion of refreshment and bold flavor. Made with a proprietary recipe using crisp, high-quality vodka and natural fruit flavors, delivering a smooth, invigorating taste experience that keeps your competitive spirit sharp and your social game even sharper.
Popularity of Cocktail in a Can
Canned cocktails have surged in popularity due to their convenience, quality, and evolving consumer preferences.
As more people seek premium, bar-quality drinks without the hassle of mixing, canned cocktails offer a ready-to-drink solution that’s portable, consistent, and often crafted with real spirits and natural ingredients. Their sleek packaging suits outdoor events, beach days, and casual gatherings—no bartending skills needed.
Additionally, the rise of health-conscious drinking has led to options with lower sugar, fewer calories, and clean labels. With innovative flavors and better branding, canned cocktails meet the modern demand for ease, taste, and lifestyle alignment—all in a pop-top can.
Whether you’re rallying on the court, soaking up the sun, or locked in a heated game night, this canned cocktail is here to match your energy.
Vodkade is available in four fan-favorite flavors:Fruit Punch, Lemon-Lime, Orange, and Berry Cherry
Available in four fan-favorite flavors (Fruit Punch, Lemon-Lime, Orange, and Berry Cherry), each sip brings a cool wave of nostalgia with a grown-up twist. Sold in a convenient four-pack and the Victory Pack, an eight-pack variety featuring two cans of each flavor.
Vodka in a can?
Vodka is ideal for canned cocktails because of its clean, neutral flavor, which makes it incredibly versatile and mixable.
It acts as a blank canvas, allowing other ingredients—like fruit juices, herbs, or sparkling mixers—to shine without clashing. This neutrality also ensures a smooth, consistent taste across a wide range of flavor profiles, from citrusy spritzes to bold berry blends.
Vodka’s light body and high mixability appeal to a broad audience, making it a go-to base for refreshing, easy-to-enjoy drinks. Plus, it’s shelf-stable and blends well with carbonated elements, making it perfect for the convenience and portability of a can.
Now available at liquor stores and major retailers across the Midwest in Illinois, Missouri, and Iowa, with plans to expand into other United States markets in summer 2025.

Former CA Gov Jerry Brown: The Disrupter, directed by Marina Zenovich screens at DOC NYC Nov 13-14
Jerry Brown: The Disrupter, directed by Marina Zenovich screens at DOC NYC Nov 13-14
JERRY BROWN: THE DISRUPTER is a candid and emotionally compelling portrait of Jerry Brown, two-time, four-term Governor of California.
Jerry Brown is a man ahead of his time.
Jerry Brown is a man ahead of his time. A natural disrupter, Jerry kickstarted the national debate about climate change and spiraling inequality back in the 1970s.
A three-time presidential candidate – who created the blueprint for today’s grassroots campaigns – Jerry Brown also achieved the remarkable feat of twice being elected Governor of California: at the very different ages of 36 and 72.
former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger
For over five decades Brown has proven his willingness to sacrifice everything – even getting elected – for the causes to which he’s devoted.
In this candid and emotionally compelling portrait
In this candid and emotionally compelling portrait, Brown opens up about his remarkable fifty-year political career, his singular private life and the lessons learned from a life in the public eye.
former Governor Jerry Brown
Told through archival footage spanning decades, this feature length documentary includes present day interviews with former Governor Jerry Brown, former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, former Governor Gray Davis, former Assembly Speaker Willie Brown, former Treasurer Kathleen Brown, actor and writer Peter Coyote, journalists Todd Purdum, Miriam Pawel, George Skelton and many others.
former Assembly Speaker Willie Brown
Filmmaker Marina Zenovich:
I don’t set out to make films about complicated men but complicated men are among the most compelling subjects to me. I love exploring their motives and choices.And Jerry is one of those.
I always wanted to make a film about Jerry Brown but zeroed in on the idea when he ran for Governor in 2010—the idea being what if you were lucky enough to have the same job at 72 that you have at 36?
That’s what interested me.
And that evolved into this. Jerry Brown has always fascinated me.He is an idealist, he’s an original thinker and he wants to make change. He was a disrupter before people knew what that word even meant.
Did he get everything right? No. Did he try his best? Yes.
I think he will be looked back at as someone who should have been President.
Marina Zenovich is a critically acclaimed two-time Primetime Emmy award-winning filmmaker. Her films have been praised for their powerful storytelling and their thoughtful, sensitive approach to difficult subjects and controversial people. Marina’s recent films include LANCE(ESPN Films/Hulu), a psychological portrait of cyclist Lance Armstrong;Robin Williams: Come Inside My Mind(HBO),Water and Power: A California Heist(National Geographic), and Fantastic Lies(ESPN)—about the Duke Lacrosse scandal.
