Live organ accompaniment by Stephen Warner
Daring rescues, narrow escapes, and gags galore, all with a live organ score!
Silents at the Senate continues its 2026 season with actor/director Buster Keaton’s seminal silent comedy, Our Hospitality. Live musical accompaniment will be provided by Stephen Warner on the Senate’s Mighty Wurlitzer theater pipe organ, the eighth largest instrument of its kind ever constructed!
Using the famous real-life family feud between the Hatfields and McCoys as inspiration, Keaton’s second feature was a groundbreaking work, seamlessly weaving its comedy and signature Keaton stunt work into a drama of generational bloodletting. Here Keaton proved himself not only a brilliant stager of gags and thrilling physical feats, but a true cinematic artist.
And, as always, following the silent film presentation patrons will have a chance to take a tour of the organ pipe chambers. Additionally, the organist for the evening will be available to field any questions you may have about theater organ and the art of silent film accompaniment!
Parking is available in our gated lot, on Gilbert, and Michigan Avenue
