A Not-So-Silent Movie Night

Just in time for Halloween, Natural Lands and the Organ Historical Society (OHS) present a thrilling evening of classic cinema with organ accompaniment at Stoneleigh’s Main House. The 1925 silent film classic “The Phantom of the Opera” was originally intended to be screened with a live orchestral score. For this special evening, award-winning organist Peter Krasinski will bring the film to life with his energetic musical interpretation.   

To complete the movie theatre experience, guests will enjoy freshly popped popcorn, a candy bar, and beer and wine at the bar.   

This event is intended for adults 18 and over.   

Doors open at 6:30 PM. The film will begin at 7:00 PM.
