Orchestra of the Swan: Safety Last!
The Swan performs a specially composed score by Artistic Director David Le Page to accompany the iconic 1923 silent comedy Safety Last!
Lloyd’s portrayal of the new kid trying to make it in the big city is pitch perfect. His astonishing pratfalls will have you convulsed with laughter and the breathtaking stunts will have you holding on to your seats as the tension rises! Directed by Fred Newmeyer and Sam Taylor, Safety Last! remains a firm favourite 100 years on.
Prior to the screening, we will be performing a short set inspired by the film. The screening with live score will then begin after a short interval.
Director David Le Page
