Silent Sundays Series: Wings

Silent Sundays at the Playhouse continue September 27th at 2:30pm with Wings starring Clara Bow!
Spectacular aerial sequences and amazing cinematography helped garner this World War I period film two Academy Awards including the first ever Best Picture Award in 1929. Directed by World War I fighter pilot William Wellman, Wings’ aerial scenes were unlike any that had ever been seen before and set precedent for other aviation movies that followed. The military helped bring Wellman’s vision to life by providing planes, equipment, and thousands of military extras.
Accompanying the film on our Mighty Wurlitzer theater pipe organ is Mark Herman. An American Theatre Organ Society Organist of the Year, Mr. Herman tours throughout the country and has performed abroad in Australia, New Zealand, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.
Our series concludes with Safety Last! starring Harold Lloyd on October 25th.
