The iconic moment when Mary Philbin removed Lon Chaney's mask in The Phantom of the Opera (1925, dir. Rupert Julian) is one of cinema’s most enduring images. Now The Invincible Czars will bring their signature blend of eclectic instrumentation, adventurous arrangements and sense of emotional depth to this 100-year-old classic, performing it live with the film. This performance will feature Emmy Award-winning foley artist Gregg Barbanell using an array of objects to create sounds that enhance the immersive experience of the film. Gregg is a master of creating sound effects for movies and TV shows. His astounding resume includes over 500 credits spanning more than four decades, from Raiders of the Lost Ark to Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul.
