About this Event
The Augusta Colonial Theater is proud to present our 2nd annual Silent Movie Fest. Due to ongoing construction at the Colonial, this year's event will be held at Johnson Hall in Gardiner, Maine, in the downstairs Logan Stage area.
This year we're showing three silent films boasting live music by noted silent film accompanist Jeff Rapsis. The films have all been meticulously restored by the event's host, Ed Lorusso of Belgrade, Maine. Ed curated this selection to feature silent films shot in Maine. With a single ticket you will be able to enjoy all three films. See the description and run time of each in the agenda section.
Thank you to our annual sponsor, Kennebec Savings Bank, and event sponsor, KRW Projects for making this event possible.
