Sierra Madre Playhouse presents a screening of Sergei Eisenstein's groundbreaking 1925 silent film Battleship Potemkin paired with the world premiere of a live music score for string quartet and vocal quintet, composed and conducted by George Sarah. The film charts the 1905 uprising aboard the Russian battleship Potemkin using gripping montage, rhythm, and emotional energy. Sarah's score integrates string quartet textures, a five-voice vocal ensemble, and subtle electronic elements to transform the screening into a multisensory experience. Performers include George Sarah on synths and electronics, soprano Jenna Hansen, mezzo soprano Anna Caplan, tenors George Sterne and Sean McDermott, Kaija Hansen on violin and viola, Katie Kim on violin, and cellists Carolyn Regula and Paul Hyun.
