Circle Cinema marks Silent Movie Day with Charley Chase shorts Tuesday
Tuesday, Sept. 29 at 7 p.m. — three 1926 Charley Chase shorts with Bill Rowland on the restored 1928 pipe organ. Tickets $8 adults, $5 kids.
Tuesday night at Circle is silent, except for the organ.
Circle Cinema lists Silent Movie Day 2026 for Tuesday, Sept. 29, at 7:00 p.m. at 10 S. Lewis Ave. The program is a tribute to Charley Chase: three 1926 shorts — Bromeo and Juliet, Mighty Like a Moose, and Crazy Like a Fox — with Bill Rowland playing a live improvised score on the theater’s restored 1928 pipe organ. Mike Huffman plays walk-in music on the organ.
Circle’s page puts tickets at $8 adults / $5 kids, with support from the American Theatre Organ Society Sooner State Chapter, Arts Alliance Tulsa, and Tulsa Spotlight Theater. Movies there start 6–8 minutes after the listed showtime. Silent Movie Day, each Sept. 29, is the annual push to present and preserve silent film; Circle points readers to SilentMovieDay.org for the wider observance.
This is an arts tip from the theater calendar, not a Best Of pick. Confirm Circle Cinema (918-585-3456) before you head over.
