Director Jake Sumner to appear in Palm Beach for documentary screening
Glazer Hall will host a special Feb. 25 screening of the documentary "Ron Delsener Presents," a behind-the-scenes look at the promoter who worked with some of the biggest names in music.
The event will feature a post-film Q&A with director Jake Sumner and music supervisor Randall Poster at the theater at 70 Royal Poinciana Way in Royal Poinciana Plaza.
The film chronicles Delsener's six-decade career as a concert promoter, starting with club shows and progressing to large-scale tours and stadium performances, according to a release. He has promoted acts including The Beatles at Forest Hills Tennis Stadium, the late David Bowie at Carnegie Hall, and the Simon & Garfunkel reunion concert in New York's Central Park.
Sumner, the son of musician Sting and Trudie Styler, has directed several documentaries, including "Fantastic Man: A Film About William Onyeabor" and "Bob of the Park," which won the Grand Jury Prize at DOC NYC.
Poster is a two-time Grammy Award-winning music supervisor who has worked on films such as "School of Rock," "Joker" and "Velvet Goldmine." He is known for his long-term collaborations with directors Wes Anderson and Martin Scorsese.
Tickets are $75 for the screening and panel discussion or $150 for a VIP package that includes a post-film meet-and-greet and cocktail party. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., with early access for members at 6 p.m. Showtime is 7 p.m.
Ticket information is available by visiting GlazerHall.org or calling (561) 576-7860.
