Comic Books, Music and Booze!
Beginning March 3rd, with a show about ‘Love,’ the zany league of theater geeks – Captured Aural Phantasy Theater – will be making an appearance at El Cid on the first Sunday of every month, presenting a wacky live show that blends comic books, pop culture and the absurd.
Each month’s entertainment event will feature a different theme presented in Captured Aural Phantasy Theater’s signature variety show format and will include CAPT’s special mix of live music, artful projections, radio show-style performance and vintage variety entertainment.
CAPT is thrilled to join forces with the legendary Silver Lake venue El Cid.
El Cid offers a romantic blend of dining, history and entertainment that is unique, enchanting and beautiful – hidden in the heart of the artistic community of Silver Lake, just minutes away from Hollywood. It is a truly magical place and is known today as a treasured landmark of the area.
Revel in El Cid’s 100 year-plus history while enjoying a brand new tapas menu and superb cocktails.
You’ll probably want to arrive early to grab a good seat and enjoy the food, or get yourself situated near the curtain and just start drinking. Why not?!

ABOUT THE COMPANY:
Captured Aural Phantasy Theater combines the art, drama and comedy of a vintage radio program with the live entertainment of a variety show. In our signature show format, CAPT players interpret thematic comic books and other pop culture nuggets in the style of a retro radio program along with musical acts, projected art and comedic bits. This perfect blend of variety, radio, cabaret, and multimedia performance, Captured Aural Phantasy Theater aims to entertain all your senses.
Captured Aural Phantasy Theater is what would happen if Garrison Keilor, John Waters and Stan Lee all hooked up after a night of hard partying. Shows are built around performances of vintage pop culture gems, but our specialty is giving old comic books a modern voice.
Captured Aural Phantasy Theater has been performing around Los Angeles for years, developing a devoted and growing following. We’ve been featured at many renowned venues, including the Alexandria Hotel, i/O West, The Bootleg, the Velaslavasay Panorama and the Nerdist Showroom at Meltdown Comics.
Captured Aural Phantasy Theater is a group dedicated to producing high-quality live, filmed and recorded entertainment; bred in Chicago, but in LA to stay. We never fail to entertain! Here’s a little of what “they” are saying:
