ICFS Presents: Laurel & Hardy: Year One with Live Organ Accompaniment

Thursday, December 21, 2023

Presented by ICFS and the Hudson-Mohawk Theatre Organ Society

This program will feature four newly restored silent shorts from Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy’s very first year together, plus…a holiday classic from a bit later in their career. The four “Year One” shorts bear witness to the evolution of Laurel & Hardy’s partnership, sometimes even presenting them in roles other than those they became famous for. As such, we feel that these are an absolute must-see. NOTE: Though the shorts are not rated, we wish to alert viewers of one or two brief instances of inappropriate content. 

Music for the program will be provided by Carl Hackert, Program Director of the Hudson-Mohawk American Theatre Organ Society and one of the area’s most talented theatre organists. Hackert will perform on “George,” a digital recreation of George Wright’s famous Hollywood Philharmonic recording studio organ, and the BIGGER ‘boyfriend’ to Proctors’ famed “Goldie.” 

Incredible films, an incredible player, an incredible instrument! You won’t want to miss this event!
