Sherlock Jr + Cops (U) Silent Film & Live Music

Experience an unforgettable double‑bill of Buster Keaton’s silent comedy genius, presented in digital projection and brought to life by the crackling sounds of John Sweeney’s live piano accompaniment. In 1924’s iconic **Sherlock Jr.** — a 45‑minute tour de force — Keaton plays a dreamy projectionist who slips into the very film he’s showcasing, blending surreal whimsy with a sharp commentary on cinema itself. Rounding out the program is the 20‑minute 1922 short **Cops**, directed by Eddie Cline and Keaton, in which a case‑of‑mistaken‑identity propels the hapless hero into a frantic chase across Los Angeles, a hilarious twist on the classic “hero vs. the faceless forces of authority.” Presented in association with MimeLondon, this event promises hilarious sight‑gags, jaw‑dropping stunts, and the timeless charm that only Keaton can deliver. Check details and tickets for a night of kinetic laughter and silent film brilliance.
