"Valentine's Day has become one of the most anticipated days of the year at the El Capitan," said James Wood, operations and stage productions for The El Capitan Theatre. "Nothing captures the spirit of this holiday more than 'Lady and the Tramp' and the opportunity for our guests to see and experience the most romantic spaghetti dinner of all time, which is a highlight of this Disney classic."

LADY AND THE TRAMP, originally released in June 1955, was the first Disney animated feature to be filmed in CinemaScope. Directed by Hamilton Luske, Clyde Geronimi, and Wilfred Jackson, the film follows the adventures of a young cocker spaniel from a respectable house, and her romantic escapades with Tramp, a devil-may-care mutt from the wrong side of the railroad tracks. Lady's comfortable life with her human family undergoes some dramatic changes with the arrival of newborn baby, and she turns to Tramp for support. Together they have several memorable outings, including a romantic moonlit spaghetti dinner at Tony's, but things go seriously awry when Lady ends up being thrown in the dog pound.

Tramp ultimately redeems himself by saving the baby from a rat and thereby wins Lady's love and the affection of her human family. The film features several enchanting songs by Peggy Lee (who voices the characters Darling and Peg) and Sonny Burke - including "Bella Notte," and "He's a Tramp"."
