Live musical accompaniment by Theatre Organ Legend ROSA RIO at the 1,200-pipe Mighty Wurlitzer

If you're within driving distance, you oughta go!
It's a great, FAMOUSLY funny movie, & Rosa Rio is really great! She was playing accompaniment for silents on in theatres when they were in FIRST run, & got even snappier afterwards accompanying radio dramas & comedies on radio. She's really great with comedies, & a lot of fun!
