On October 29, musician Billie Eilish brought the beloved Nightmare Before Christmas character Sally to life on stage in Los Angeles. She was joined by Danny Elfman in the role of Sally’s love interest Jack Skellington. The Disney live-to-film concert experience of Tim Burton’s holiday hit was scheduled for two nights at Banc of California Stadium, with a reprisal set for October 31.
Eilish and Elfman were accompanied by a full orchestra conducted by John Mauceri. In a costume approximating Sally’s look, with a dress made of patches and scars and stitches drawn on her body, Eilish performed solo for “Sally’s Song,” and then joined Elfman for a verse in “Simply Meant to Be.”
