The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari with Live Piano Accompaniment

Cinema | (U) | 55 minutes |
30th October 2019

Join us for a special All Hallow’s Eve-Eve screening of Robert Wiene’s classic silent horror film from 1919, with Live Piano accompaniment, played on our Steinway Piano.

At a carnival in Germany, Francis (Friedrich Feher) and his friend Alan (Rudolf Lettinger) encounter the crazed Dr. Caligari (Werner Krauss). The men see Caligari showing off his somnambulist, Cesare (Conrad Veidt), a hypnotized man who the doctor claims can see into the future. Shockingly, Cesare then predicts Alan’s death, and by morning his chilling prophecy has come true — making Cesare the prime suspect. However, is Cesare guilty, or is the doctor controlling him?

Following last year’s sell-out screening of Nosferatu, pianist Tony Judge returns to the Brewery with an original live score! We also welcome Professor Allyson Fiddler (of Lancaster University’s Languages And Cultures Department) who will be introducing this event and partaking in a Q&A session alongside Tony Judge.
