Cinema accompanied by live piano quintet

Further to a successful screening of the silent film ‘Sherlock Junior’ at last year's Highgate International Chamber Music festival, Not So Silent Cinema is back with another Buster Keaton comedy classic. ‘College’ tells the story of bookish Ronald who attempts to become an athlete to win the affection of sweetheart, Mary. A series of hilarious sporting failures ensue – but will his cleverness get him the girl? Accompanied by a laugh-a-minute score by award-winning Hollywood composer Stephen Prutsman, performed by live piano quintet.
