Building upon its storied history as silent film house, Sierra Madre Playhouse presents Carl Dreyer’s critically acclaimed 1928 silent film "The Passion of Joan of Arc” with live orchestral accompaniment featuring a musical score composed by George Sarah, on Saturday, May 10, 2025, 7:30 pm. Dreyer’s cinematic tour de force is considered by many critic s to be among the greatest films ever made.
This haunting performance combines electronic music with a string ensemble and early music choir, reimagining the classic film with modern urgency and depth. Sarah’s composition blends pulsing electronic beats with emotive soundscapes and rich orchestral textures, creating an immersive auditory experience that enhances the film’s visual intensity. This 81-minute performance offers a powerful and evocative journey, merging ancient and contemporary soundscapes in a deeply compelling way.
