STEAMBOAT BILL JR.
(1928, Charles Reisner)
Wilton’s Music Hall, London
Piano score by Tom Marlow
King of silent comedy Buster Keaton returns to the big screen with one of his most well-loved movies; performing his most famous stunt of all time in this river-based Romeo and Juliet comedy about rival steamer companies.
Our pianist for the evening Mr Tom Marlow has already built up an impressive résumé of silent film work, composing and performing superb original musical settings of comic films by Keaton, Chaplin and Harold Lloyd, and last summer delighting Wiltons audiences with his stunning new score for Fritz Lang’s masterpiece Metropolis.
