Dr. Caligari w/Live Organist
Horror Movie Madness presents
THE CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI (1920)
with Live Accompaniment by Photoplay Organist Jay Warren
Wednesday, October 16th | 9 pm
On Wednesday, October 16th, Chicago based silent film organist, Jay Warren, will provide a photoplay score for the early 20th century German Expressionist silent film THE CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI (1920) at The Logan Theatre.
A forty-year veteran of silent film accompaniment, Warren is passionate about preserving silent film music, a genre in danger of “slipping through the cracks.”
Logan Theatre audiences attending THE CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI will be treated to an authentic 1920s-style film experience, with Warren bringing in his specially designed digital Mighty Wurlitzer theater organ to provide the photoplay accompaniment. The theatre organ – a genuine American phenomena - was the workhorse of the silent film era. Dynamically superior to the piano and more spontaneous than an orchestra, it is truly “the voice of the silent cinema.”
Tickets are $14 and on sale now:
