At 7:30 pm each night, the CAPA Summer Movie Series will screen silent film Robin Hood, preserved by The Museum of Modern Art with support from The Celeste Bartos Film Preservation Fund, which will be accompanied live by featured organist Clark Wilson on the Ohio Theatre's historic "Mighty Morton" theatre organ.
