The Mask Returns to the Big Screen — With Randy Edelman Live at the Piano by Eileen Shapiro
On Friday, March 13 at 7:30 PM, the Cinema Arts Centre in Huntington, New York will transform into a night of cinematic magic, nostalgia, and live musical brilliance as The Mask returns to the big screen — followed by an intimate concert performance from the film’s Golden Globe–nominated composer, Randy Edelman.
Few scores capture the playful mischief and larger-than-life energy of a film the way Edelman’s music did for The Mask. Starring Jim Carrey in one of his most iconic roles, the film became a cultural phenomenon — and Edelman’s score was the heartbeat beneath the green-faced chaos, romance, and explosive comedy.
Now, audiences will experience the full circle of artistry: first the screening, then the man behind the music taking the stage himself.
Following the film, Edelman will perform selections from his legendary catalog — music that has shaped Hollywood for decades. From sweeping orchestral moments to intimate piano reflections, his concert promises to reveal the emotional architecture behind some of cinema’s most unforgettable scenes.
This special evening is being promoted by Evan Bruce and Jud Newborn, whose dedication to bringing culturally rich and artistically significant programming to audiences continues to elevate the Huntington arts scene. Their support ensures that this event is not simply a screening, but a celebration of film history and live performance artistry.
Edelman, whose career spans iconic films and chart-topping songs, brings not only technical mastery but storytelling through melody. Hearing him live offers something rare — the composer narrating his own cinematic journey through music.
For film lovers, music aficionados, and anyone who grew up enchanted by The Mask, March 13 promises to be an evening where nostalgia meets virtuosity.
