Augustana Arts, the independent nonprofit based at Augustana Lutheran Church on East Alameda Avenue, marks Halloween weekend with the silent-film classic ‘The Phantom of the Opera’ on Friday, Oct. 30. Organist Simon Jacobs accompanies the film with a live, fully improvised organ score, and the organizer invites the audience to step into the shadows for one of cinema’s most enduring legends.
The evening opens with a festive pre-show party with drinks at 6:30 p.m., and the film runs from 7:30 to about 9 p.m. Costumes are strongly encouraged, and the organizer says guests can come up to the organ afterward to learn more about the instrument. Tickets are sold through Augustana Arts’ online box office; the event page does not print a price.
