Australia's FIRST Silent Film Festival

Hey everyone,

Please check out the following, it's for Australia's first and only Silent FIlm Festival, hosted by the Deaf Society of NSW. It will be opened by David Stratton next Friday, March 30th, at 5.45pm @ the lovely Orpheum Theatre in Cremmorne. If anyone is interested/available to check it out, please do so. The festival runs over 3 days, starting next Friday until Sunday April 1st. Many of the screenings will be accompanied by a live theatrical orchestra - something you don't see too often. Details are as follows (and don't forget to check out the website down below):

Dear Eren

We refer to our earlier conversation and write to cordially invite you and a
partner to the opening of the Festival and to the opening night prescreening
function of drinks and finger food from 5.45 pm onwards on Friday March 30,
hosted by the Festival charity, the Deaf Society of NSW. This precedes the
official opening film Cyrano de Bergerac introduced by David Stratton
accompanied by the supremely talented Sharolyn Kimmorley and Jem Harding.
The Patron of the Festival Charity, the Deaf Society of NSW, Professor
Bashir, the Governor of NSW, will attend the opening at the Hayden Orpheum
at Cremorne.

As I am writing this I am listening to the music from City Lights, It's a
Dog's Life and Modern Times. Fantastic. These are the tracks for our Charlie
performer at the Orpheum promo tomorrow afternoon. General details of the
Festival are set out below and on our website.

Buster Keaton, Chaplin, Hitchcock, Murnau and many others are joining
several thousand of us in a glamorous Festival!

The inaugural Australia's Silent Film Festival shall take place in Sydney
over three days in late March this year.

The festival will feature recognized and rare masterpieces, lovingly
restored, from Australia and around the world. These outstanding films are
presented as they were originally intended to be shown: lovingly restored
with musical soundtrack accompaniment, often live. Please visit our website!

We hope that you can attend and look forward to hearing from you in this
regard.

As the Festival is nearing, any further promotion would be most welcome.

Yours sincerely

Ronnie and Sharon
