  3. CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI


The award-winning Equity professional East Lynne Theater Company presents the classic silent thriller, "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari," accompanied by Wayne Zimmerman on the organ, on Sunday, October 29 at 7:30p.m., at The First Presbyterian Church, 500 Hughes Street in Cape May, where the theater is in residence. Created in 1920, "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari" is considered the first horror film. It begins at a carnival where a sideshow operator, Dr. Caligari, played by Werner Krauss, exhibits Cesare, a Somnambulist, played by Conrad Veidt. Caligari claims that Cesare has been sleeping since birth, and keeps him in a coffin. Caligari also claims that he can answer any question, including when someone will die. Directed by Robert Weine, this film is believed to be the first example in cinema of German Expressionism.
Wayne Zimmerman has played in a variety of venues from coast-to-coast and in Hawaii, regaling audiences with his silent-film accompaniment and concerts. He has accompanied films presented by ELTC since 2011, and his popularity is ever increasing, with patrons driving in from Philadelphia, Princeton, and the New York City area just to hear him.
Reservations are recommended and may be purchased through ELTC’s website, eastlynnetheater.org, by calling 609-884-5898., or e-mailing eastlynneco@aol.com.

Ages: Age 10 on up
