Charlie Chaplin’s The Circus – Silent Film with Live Score by Dennis James

One of Charlie Chaplin’s funniest features, The Circus is a cinematic big top packed with thrills, romance, and mischievous monkeys. Don’t miss your chance to see this all-time classic on MBT’s big screen with expert live accompaniment by the great Dennis James. Wrongfully pursued by the police, Chaplin’s wandering tramp ducks into a big top mid-show and winds up the star attraction! In between getting trapped in a lion’s cage and partaking in clumsy high-wire escapades, Chaplin falls for the beautiful show rider, but finds a rival in a daring tightrope acrobat. Both hilarious and surprisingly moving, The Circus is timeless entertainment for all ages.
