The Vampire Lestat Turns The Beacon Theatre Into One Undead Rock Show
Dig out the goblet. The Vampire Lestat just turned the famed Beacon Theatre in New York into one deliciously dramatic undead rock show.
Played by Sam Reid, Lestat hit the stage for The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only — Live, performing the original track “Long Face” with the kind of theatrical swagger only a vampire with cheekbones, centuries of damage and a fully booked rock-star era could deliver.
As only a vampire truly can.
From the Beacon Theatre stage to AMC’s undead Sunday-night lineup, The Vampire Lestat is leaning all the way into music, menace and immortal main-character energy.

The live performance was part of AMC and AMC+’s fan-first launch for The Vampire Lestat, the rock-drenched next chapter of the Anne Rice Immortal Universe. AMC announced the Beacon Theatre event as Lestat’s final “tour stop,” with Reid performing original music by series composer Daniel Hart after a special premiere screening.
And honestly, this is exactly the lane Lestat was built to terrorize. The hair. The eyeliner. The smirk. The tragic little rock god inside a monster suit. “Long Face” plays like the show finally letting him step into the spotlight he has been demanding since the first time he entered a room like everyone owed him rent.
Also, do not forget: The Vampire Lestat airs Sundays on AMC and streams on AMC+. So yes, keep your Sundays booked, your curtains drawn and your volume disrespectfully high.
