Events

In an absorbing and poignant glimpse of a bygone time, two silent movie Western ‘shorts’ are brought vividly to life, accompanied by an original score performed by Sonic Silents. ‘The Pitch o Chance’ and ‘The Pilgrim’ are adventure films that evoke a world of hobos, travelling men, cowboys and adventurous women, and the moral and practical dilemmas to which their precarious lives lead them. Sonic Silents are a trio of oldtime country and bluegrass musicians featuring Kate Lissauer, champion fiddler and leader of The Buffalo Gals, Leon Hunt, widely regarded as the best 5-string banjo player in the country, and Jason Titley, one of the UK’s finest Bluegrass guitarist. With evocative music ranging from lively to melancholy, expect an absorbing and poignant glimpse of a bygone time. www.katelissauer.com/sonic-silents Booking here:  tickets starting at £5, £10 or family ticket options https://artsreach.co.uk/event/sonic-silents
