Phantom of the Opera Silent Film Screening with live accompaniment by Dylan Jack Quartet

Trinity United Methodist Church
Asbury Hall
361 Sumner Avenue
Springfield, MA, 01108

The classic novel, The Phantom of the Opera (Le Fantôme de l’Opéra), was written by French author Gaston Leroux in 1911. The film, directed by Carl Laemmle in 1925 features Lon Chaney as Erik The Phantom and Mary Philbin as singer Christine Daae. Certain scenes caused quite a stir among moviegoers in 1925 and we’re excited to present this film, with new music created in the moment, 99 years later!

Dylan Jack Quartet is comprised of Jerry Sabatini, brass and percussion; Eric Hofbauer, guitar and electronics; Tony Leva, Bass; and Dylan Jack, drums and percussion.

This event is presented by Bing Productions in collaboration with Trinity United Methodist Church. Sponsored by Florence Bank.

Tickets are $20 and available through Eventbrite.
