Christopher Lloyd Bratten-Zappala is the co-founder of Ad Astra LLC, whose flagship production is For The Record. FTR brings movies to life on stage through their soundtracks in a series of groundbreaking immersive theatrical concerts. During his tenure as co-creator, music supervisor, music director, and pianist/keyboardist, Christopher and the FTR team launched shows based on the films of Quentin Tarantino, John Hughes, Martin Scorsese, Garry & Penny Marshall, Robert Zemeckis, Baz Luhrmann, Paul Thomas Anderson, and the Coen Brothers. The Tarantino show appeared at the Montreal Jazz Festival and at South By Southwest. The Luhrmann show took up residency in Las Vegas in collaboration with Cirque Du Soleil. And the Hughes show became a fixture in a Norwegian Cruise Line ship. FTR alums include Evan Rachel Wood, Rumer Willis, Alex Wyse, Tracie Thoms, Barrett Foa, Janel Parrish, Michael Arden, and Derek Klena. Their productions received acclaim from media outlets like the Los Angeles Times and Variety and from industry titans like Quentin Tarantino and Baz Luhrmann.
