“The Phantom Of The Opera” (1925) With Live Score At The Art Theatre

Phantom_FlyerMondoCelluloid.com announces the triumphant return of its “Live Score Classics” series with Lon Chaney’s 1925 horror classic “The Phantom of the Opera”. The film screens at The Art Theatre and will be presented alongside a live original score written and performed by the Creative Arts Collective, an LA-based ensemble dedicated to promoting improvisational, experimental and diverse art forms in visual arts, music, dance and theater.

Seating begins at 11:45 pm; Film Screens At Midnite.

Inducted into the National Film Registry in 1998, director Rupert Julian’s adaptation of the classic Gaston Leroux novel features Lon Chaney in what is perhaps his most famous role, that of the murderous Phantom. Nicknamed “The Man of a Thousand Faces,” Chaney famously designed and applied his own makeup, including applying actual egg membrane to his eyeballs to make them look cloudy! The result is one of cinema’s greatest Gothic horror films – don’t miss this rare opportunity to see it with a brand new score!
