The discounts of the Müpa+ membership programme will be applied for this performance, and we also credit membership points.

The 1924 silent film by Buster Keaton, the deadpan burlesque master of the stony face who always took extraordinary risks both as an actor and a director, will be screened before the Müpa audience on this occasion with improvised organ accompaniment. The out-of-control motorcycle chase, all kinds of other tricks and a host of literally breakneck stunts will be given a powerful musical backdrop by the brilliant Slovak organist Monika Melcová, who was trained in Košice, Vienna and Paris, but now lives in Spain. In doing so, she will vividly recreate for us not only the atmosphere of Hollywood’s golden age, but also that of “old-fashioned cinema”.
