A completely improvised silent movie accompanied by live ragtime piano music, inspired by the films and ambience of the 1920s. Every day six actors and a piano player will create a new play on the spot, inspired by the masterpieces of Chaplin, Lloyd and many other silent stars. An international show suitable for people of any nationality as well as those with hearing difficulties, it innovates and pushes the boundaries of the improvisation art form. 'Memorable doesn't do justice to it... one of the best live performances I've seen in a long while' (FringeReview.co.uk).
