The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920): Film Screening with Live Accompaniment
Wednesday 25 October 2023, 7.30pm
RNCM Concert Hall
Dare to experience the terrifying tale of Dr. Caligari and his murderous somnambulist.
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari is silent cinema’s original horror film. Born out of the German Expressionist movement, you’ll find yourself immersed in an eerie world of betrayal and bloodshed.
Providing the dramatic backdrop, organist Darius Battiwalla performs a live improvised soundtrack as this spine-tingling story unfolds.
The evening will begin at 7.30pm with the supporting short feature The Impossible Voyage (1904, dir Georges Méliès), with a live improvised score by students from the RNCM.
