Celebrate the centennial of one of the most famous films of all time, Universal’s The Phantom of the Opera (1925).
This special screening features the original score performed live by Jay Spencer at the Kilgen Wonder Organ and American Musical Productions’ 16-piece orchestra under the direction of conductor Joseph Rubin. Lon Chaney’s performance still captivates a century later and the original score (unheard in Canton since the film’s week-long run at the Mozart Theatre 100 years ago) brings the film to life. The Canton Repository raved “Lon Chaney has triumphed again…it is certainly the strangest, most breathless film production the public has ever been offered.”

Join the Canton Palace Theatre for the Silent Film Special showing of Clara Bow’s “It” on Canton’s largest screen!
Synopsis
When she first sets eyes on her new boss, the wealthy Cyrus Waltham Jr. (Antonio Moreno), department store clerk Betty Lou Spence (Clara Bow) is convinced he’s got “it,” an indefinable quality that makes one irresistible to the opposite sex. Betty Lou charms her employer on a date, but Cyrus suddenly cools when he hears a false story that Betty Lou has mothered an illegitimate child. Crushed by Cyrus’ assumption, the shopgirl ramps up the sex appeal to win her man back and teach him a lesson.
Film is accompanied by Jay Spencer on the Kilgen Organ!
