In celebration of Kent MOMI’s new Buster Keaton mural, and the season of celebration, we present ‘Winter Warmers’ - Five Weeks of Silent Comedy delights.
The season begins on Friday 17th November with Chaplin: Before and Becoming the Tramp, featuring shorts by the Frenchman Max Linder (Chaplin’s “Professor”), Mack Sennett and the Keystone Corp., “Fatty” Arbuckle, and Charlie Chaplin – up to and including the “birth” of the Tramp, in 1914.
The screenings will average 1 hour 50 minutes. Treats to round off the feast will include mulled wine and hot punches, classic cocktails by Dr. Natasha, and small seasonal hot pastries. Wine, beer and soft drinks are also available. Doors open at 5:30pm and the programme commences at 6:30pm sharp.
Online booking available on this web page from Saturday 11th November.
Screenings are FREE to Kent MOMI yearly ticket holders, but a £5 donation is suggested, to help us keep the lights on. Seating is limited to 30. Museum tickets can be bought at the door, and are valid for a year.
