Silent film with live piano

Sunday 29 January 2012

Film starts 5.30pm. Refreshments from 4.30pm.

Rook Lane becomes The Rialto for a special cinematic treat: a screening of the rarely-seen silent film STREET ANGEL with live, improvised piano accompaniment.

Frank Borzage's 1928 tale of "human souls made great by love and adversity" - one of the very earliest films to win an Academy Award - will be enhanced by the inventiveness and dexterity of Andrew Youdell, who has had many years' experience and acclaim as a silent film pianist. It will be Andrew's first encounter with this great early work by Hollywood's "undiscovered genius" - an experience not to be missed!

Admission

Tickets £8 (available from Cheese and Grain on 01373 455 420) to include tea/coffee and a slice of cake.
