Phantom of the Opera
October 9, 2024 @ 6:30 pm

Join the Classic Film Club for a viewing of the silent horror classic The Phantom of the Opera. Celebrating its 99th anniversary, this film is the oldest surviving adaptation of Gaston Leroux’s novel and remains a masterpiece of early cinema.
The story unfolds in the grand Paris Opera House, which recently came under new ownership. As the ownership papers are signed, the previous owners casually mention a ghost rumored to haunt the premises. Rumors fly about a mysterious figure, cloaked and hatted, who frequents Box Five. Joseph Bouquet, a seasoned stagehand, further fuels the fear by describing a “living skeleton” lurking deep within the theater’s shadows.
