Steamboat Bill, Jr. – Silent Film with Live Score
Silent-film classic Steamboat Bill, Jr. with Buster Keaton comes alive with a live orchestral score.
Step back in time with this unique showing of a beloved 1928 silent film classic starring Buster Keaton. What makes this screening special is that a live orchestra performs composer Carl Davis's original score right on stage as the movie plays. The music accompanies all the action—the gags, chases, and daring stunts—creating an experience that feels both timeless and fresh.
This is a wonderful opportunity for families to discover (or rediscover) silent-era comedy while enjoying the rich, dynamic sound of live orchestral performance. Kids and adults alike will appreciate Keaton's physical comedy and the theatrical energy that comes from having musicians performing alongside the film. It's a distinctive blend of film history and live entertainment that you won't find at a typical movie theater.
