Event

Balloons, Boats and Bunglers

Join internationally acclaimed organist Peter Krasinski of Brookline as he accompanies an eclectic trio of silent films: 1956 Oscar winner "The Red Balloon," a beloved tale of a French boy and his balloon; Buster Keaton's frolicking family voyage "The Boat" (1921); and comical convicts Laurel & Hardy in "Liberty" (1929). Krasinski, who accompanied the silent classic "Wings" at Chevalier Theatre in 2011, specializes in improvisational silent film accompaniment. Krasinski also will accompany a short film compiled from videos submitted by Medford residents depicting their daily journeys around town.

Part of CACHE in Medford's fifth annual Arts Across Medford festival taking place throughout October. www.medfordfestival.org
