Join us for a special screening of the 1923 silent comedy "Safety Last!"—featuring Nebraska’s own Harold Lloyd—on Thursday, September 25th, at the historic Midwest Theater in Scottsbluff. This iconic film, renowned for its daring clock-hanging scene, will be brought to life with a live score performed by the Mont Alto Motion Picture Orchestra. Attendees are invited to embrace the Roaring Twenties by dressing in 1920s-inspired fashion, although this is optional. Doors open at 6 PM for refreshments from the Powerhouse Social & Suites cash bar, with the film starting at 7 PM and a runtime of 75 minutes. Tickets are available online or by calling the box office, priced at $50 for main floor seats and $40 for balcony seats. This event is organized in partnership with the Midwest Theater, Friends of the Midwest Theater, and the Nebraska State Historical Society, celebrating not only the film but also the culture and history of the silent film era.
