The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, featuring live music by Tom Teasley at Constellation Theatre Company

Fresh off his Helen Hayes Award win for Outstanding Sound Design, percussionist and composer Tom Teasley will perform his original soundtrack live to complement screenings of the classic German horror film The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. In this quintessential work of German Expressionist cinema, a dangerous hypnotist uses a sleepwalker to commit a series of escalating kidnappings and murders. Set in a jagged urban landscape and told with iconic visual style, this horror film reveals the fine line between sanity and madness. Internationally renowned musician Tom Teasley returns for a third time to create a powerful live underscore for Constellation's silent film series. Tickets are $25-$55 and can be purchased online at www.ConstellationTheatre.org or over the phone by calling 202-204-7741.
