[Rose-movies] Special Rose Event January 28th

[The Rose Theatre]

Greetings:

Following last year's sold-out performance of four silent comedies with 
live music, this year the Rose Theatre and the Port Townsend Film Institute 
present the 1924 silent classic "Peter Pan."  Pianist Donald Sosin once 
again returns to the Rose from New York to accompany this timeless classic, 
and screenwriter Stewart Stern ("Rebel Without a Cause," "Sybil") will 
introduce the movie with personal reminiscences of actress Betty 
Bronson.  Stewart's uncle, Adolph Zukor, who was president and chairman of 
Paramount studio produced "Peter Pan."

Betty Bronson stars as Peter Pan, the boy who never grew up, charms Wendy 
and her brothers to fly with him to Never Never Land.  On this island of 
dreams and magic, they struggle to rescue the Lost Boys from Captain Hook 
(Ernest Torrence) and his band of pirates, encountering along the way the 
delightful fairy Tinkerbell (Virginia Browne Faire), a man-eating 
crocodile, and a band of valiant Indians (led by Anna May Wong).

This memorable adaptation - which in turn inspired later film versions of 
the story - features delightful special effects by Roy Pomeroy, and 
beautiful photography by legendary cinematographer James Wong Howe ("The 
Thin Man," "The Sweet Smell of Success," "Hud").

*Date: Sunday, January 28; 2 shows - 12:30 & 4:00
  Tickets: Adults $14, Children (12 & under) $7, available at the Rose box 
office or on line at www.rosetheatre.com



*Last year's event not only sold out well in advance, but we received more 
than 80 additional requests for tickets.  This wonderful adaptation of 
"Peter Pan" with live music is an event not to be missed.  It is guaranteed 
that when Peter asks if you believe in fairies, 158 voices will fill the 
Rose.  Be among them.
