This weekend in the arts in San Diego: Contemporary ballet meets theatrical superstitions; a communal breathwork painting project; North Park Book Fair; George Romero's zombies set to a new score; AXIS Día de los Muertos at The Old Globe; an artsy haunted house at Bread & Salt; Bach and Graupner; plus live music and more.
| Each year, contemporary ballet company The Rosin Box Project adds a touch of mystique to its Halloween-themed"Ghost Light Masquerade" performance series. Centered on choreography by founder Carly Topazio and company dancer/choreographer Bethany Green, the project is inspired by the history of superstitions and hauntings in the theatrical world. Theaters traditionally left a single light bulb lit on the stage overnight to fend off ghosts and hauntings.
Denmark-born, Berlin-based artist Jeppe Hein will bring his collective and meditative art project,"Breathe With Me," to the Epstein Family Amphitheater. Participants can pick up a paintbrush and paint a vertical line of blue as they exhale. The resulting collection of blue lines will be a blend of visual art and communal breathwork.On Saturday, Hein will be joined by actress Laura Linney for an on-stage conversation about mental health, mindfulness and art.
| Watch George Romero's iconic horror film"Night of the Living Dead" with a live"re-score" by New York-based band Morricone Youth.

Highlights include a makeshift vintage movie theater looping horror movies and a Pop Art-style castle installation.
