The Sydney Opera House have started a monthly series called Screen Live, where newly commissioned scores to silent films are performed live (while the film is shown). The one in August seems like a great chance to wear steampunk and see some great early film by Georges Méliès. His 1902 Trip to the Moon and 1905 Voyage across the Impossible are in the program.

Screen Live - Georges Méliès Project

Is anyone else interested in this? (and willing/able to pay the $29 ticket price).

It has been put to hubby, we shall see if we can attend. We have a 50th birthday party the night before near Taree.
Can you pay on the night?

I think it depends on whether there are any seats left by then. Some things sell out & others don't.

One of our offline members is very interested in coming along, and I'm going to buy tickets (or at least mine) later this week.

No worries. Lorna can't make it after all, so I'm going with a friend (but won't be wearing a costume). It was a good idea, but not all good ideas work out :-)
