Local
EORT to hold silent
movie fundraiser
The Eastern Oregon
Regional Theatre will be
holding a Silent Movie
Fundraiser at the Iron Gate
Theatre in Baker City on
April 8th. Local pianist
Keith Taylor will ac-
company the classic W.C.
Fields silent movie – “It’s
the Old Army Game.”
“This is an all new scor-
ing of this movie,” said
Taylor. He’s composed
scores for 15 silent mov-
ies, including “The Gold
Rush,” starring Charlie
Chaplain, one of Taylor’s
favorites. He said it takes
about a year to compose a
score for a movie.
According to Eastern
Oregon Regional Theatre
President Kelly Brick-
man, Taylor graciously
volunteered to present
this movie in order to
raise funds for the operat-
ing costs of the Iron Gate
Theatre. There will be two
showings of the movie –
one at 3 p.m. and one at 7
p.m. Tickets for the event
will be available at the
door. The cost is $10 for
all seats.
“Every year the cost to
put on a play rises and we
would like to continue to
provide affordable live
theatre in Baker City,” said
Brickman. “We would
rather not raise ticket
prices. In order to do that,
we must do fundraising
events such as this. We
also apply for grants,
seek local sponsors for
our musical productions,
accept advertisers in our
programs, and rent out our
theatre for meetings and
visiting performers.”
The movie will be held
at the Iron Gate Theatre,
upstairs in the Basche Sage
Mall. The theatre has 45
seats which includes two
wheelchair spaces. There
will be an elevator opera-
tor to take those patrons
who do not wish to climb
the stairs up to the theatre.
There will also be refresh-
ments for sale as well
as music CDs and silent
movie DVDs by Taylor.
