Keaton, Lloyd Highlight Next
Silent Film Events At Coleman
MIAMI, Okla. – Two of the silent film era’s best funny men will be featured in the next two installments of
the Silent Film Series at the Coleman Theatre.
Buster Keaton and Harold Lloyd will grace the screen the Coleman in March and April, as Dennis James,
the master of “The Mighty Wurlitzer” pipe organ, brings a Keaton double feature in March and returns in
April with his Musica Curiosa show featuring the always funny Lloyd.
“I don’t know which silent film event I am more excited about,” said Shannon Duhon, managing director of
the Coleman Theatre. “Keaton and Lloyd two of my favorites and are sure to be a treat for the audience.
Combined with James, the official house organist of the Coleman Theatre, these two events will be filled
with laughs and great entertainment.”
‘THE BLACKSMITH’
‘THE CAMERAMAN’
7:30 p.m. Saturday, March 17, 2018
2:30 p.m. Sunday, March 18, 2018
Dennis James brings to the Coleman Theatre a pair of Buster Keaton comedies, the first, “The Blacksmith,”
is a short comedy co-written and co-directed by Keaton.
In the film, Keaton plays an assistant blacksmith to the burly worker played by a Keaton acting company
favorite, the big Joe Roberts, with predictable results.
The second film, “The Camerman,” directed by Edward Sedgwick, was Keaton’s first film with Metro-
Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) and is considered by fans and critics to be Keaton still in top form. Within a little
over a year, however, MGM would take away Keaton’s creative control over his pictures, causing drastic
and long-lasting harm to his career.
“Keaton would later call the move away from his own production company to work for major studio MGM
the worst mistake of his career.” James said. “This particular movie was added to the National Film
Registry in 2005 as being culturally, historically or aesthetically significant.”
MUSICA CURIOUSA
7:30 p.m. Saturday, April 21, 2018
2:30 p.m. Sunday, April 22, 2018
103 N. Main St. * Miami, OK 74354 * www.colemantheatre.org
Dennis James brings his Musica Curiosa and silent film presentation to the Coleman in April 2018. The
first part of the program will feature a concert of South American salon music from Brazil and Argentina,
followed be the always funny Harold Lloyd in “Why Worry?”
“Containing more gags per minute than any of his other features, ‘Why Worry?’ is one of Harold Lloyd’s
funniest films,” James said. “With the barest of plots, Lloyd and his writers came up with every possible
gag one could use in a South American setting and then threw an actual giant into the fray to make things
even more insane.”
Lloyd plays Harold van Pelham, a wealthy hypochondriac who is ordered by his doctors -- in an effort to
get rid of him -- to travel to a warm climate.
With his manservant and beautiful private nurse in tow, van Pelham heads South to the Isle of Paradiso.
Little realizing that Paradiso is in the middle of a revolution, van Pelham misunderstands the goings on,
believing the townspeople are just being friendly.
“All the elements are all there for one gag after another and, in true Harold Lloyd fashion, each gag builds
upon the other, making ‘Why Worry?’ still as funny today as when it was first released,” James said.
Tickets for all silent film events are $20 for adults, $15 for senior citizens and $10 for students and
children. Facility fees will apply.
To purchase tickets or for more information, call the Coleman Theatre Beautiful at 918-540-2425 or stop
by the box office window at 103 North Main in Miami. Mastercard, Visa, Discover and American Express
are accepted. Tickets may also be purchased online at www.colemantheatre.org/events.

Consulting Report
January-Februay 2018
This time period was focused on promotion and planning for the shows the last of this year and for next
year. The FOC newsletter was completed featuring the 89-year history of the Coleman as presenting great
entertainment for the four-state area and to advertising in depth all of the shows for the remainder of this
fiscal year.
We are still waiting to hear if the Oklahoma Arts Council has approved our grant request for “Rock
Legends” this April. It has been a few weeks, but we had not heard as of last week.
Then attention turned toward selecting the title of the silent movies for the following fiscal year and that
has been done. We are very excited about featuring a newly restored silent movie, “Rin Tin Tin,” and
featuring the dog theme both there and in the following production which is a classic “A Dog’s Life”
comedy and one other show. Shannon has some great ideas about promotions in conjunction with the
Animal Shelter. Then Dennis does the third show with fabulous pianist, Michael Tsalsa of Spain (this is
one that is a good possible choice for wiring a grant.)
We have a tentative contract, which may be finalized this week, for the “Red Dirt Rangers,” a very
popular Oklahoma group from the list of sponsored shows put out by the Oklahoma Arts Council. The
show is very reasonable. This is a show the audiences should enjoy and turn out for on Aug. 4, 2018.
Another show we are considering and have explored is a production of “Elvis and Johnny” with two
singers and musicians portraying Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash. One has played in Branson for over six
years a while back as Elvis and the other has also played there and toured extensively as Cash. They come
highly recommended.
We continue to explore areas for improvement to the facility and to the functioning of the theatre.
Shannon is preparing a list of the people who pledged but have not completed and I will call them and try
to get the books cleared up as soon as possible. We are also looking at some things that Friends can do to
assist with some of the smaller projects and appreciate their ongoing efforts to help in any way they can.
Their financial assistance has made a big difference this year!
Things are looking good for another excellent year and one of the areas I am exploring is requesting
permission from the Walton Foundation to submit a proposal for a grant to help fund next year’s full
season. A letter must be written to ask and explain our position before they will invite a grant proposal.
We can hope we are asked!
