Movies Made Musical with the Mighty Wurlitzer
Tedde Gibson, organ - Aronoff Center, Music Hall Ballroom
Program Info: Back by popular demand, The Friends of Music Hall presents our popular silent film concert series featuring organist Tedde Gibson mastering the Albee Theatre Mighty Wurlitzer organ in the Music Hall Ballroom while screening Captain January and Carmen Jr.
Diana Serra Cary (born Peggy-Jean Montgomery) lived from 1918 to 2020 and was known as Baby Peggy during her career. She was one of three major American child stars of the Hollywood silent film era along with Jackie Coogan and Baby Marie. Between 1921 and 1924 she starred in over 150 short comedy films.
Screening on April 12 are two favorites: Carmen Jr. (1923), a short comedy film, and Captain January (1924), based on an 1890 children’s novel about a lighthouse keeper and his adopted daughter. Shirley Temple later starred in a remake.
