Modern Times performance, Covent Garden Sinfonia

Chaplin’s award-winning masterpiece, Modern Times, will be screened with the original score played live by the Covent Garden Sinfonia and conducted by Ben Palmer. The event will also include a pre-concert talk  by Chaplin’s grandson, Spencer Chaplin. 

Modern Times, released in 1936 starring Charlie Chaplin, centres on a luckless factory worker who finds himself so unnerved by trying to cope with modern technology that he ends up institutionalised. From there more mishaps and adventures ensue. It is regarded as one of Chaplin’s most comedic films and one of the last great silent films. Most notably, the film introduced Chaplin’s trademark song “Smile.”
