The Marx Brothers always get plenty of play during the turn of the year, but, if you’re in the mode for black and white film comedy that still stands the test of time, you best not forget about comedy/filmmaking legend and pioneer Buster Keaton. His daring stunts made for some of the most enduring images of comedy at the outset of moving pictures and are still astounding by today’s standards.

Fortunately, for Angelenos, an entire Buster Keaton Festival has been created that will celebrate Keaton’s memory at El Segundo’s Old Town Music Hall. Not only will you get to joyfully run through Buster’s filmography, but it will be live accompanies by Old Town Music Hall’s beautiful Mighty Wurlitzer Theatre Pipe Organ, played by Mark Herman.

This very special silent film festival is slated for Sat. Jan. 6th at 2:30PM will only run you $20. Please go get tix here.

Silly, absurdist sketch comedy, fantastic jazz, and an excellent example of Vaudevillian style clowning all come together here.

Sammy Miller and The Congregation might be the most fun loving jazz band around that weaves tomfoolery in between songs and Bill Irwin is a traditional clown that can show how Vaudeville can still live on.

On top of all of that, this Sunday night, September 24th at 8:30PM, engagement will take place at the lovely Old Town Music Hall, an classical revival theater in El Segundo.

Tickets are $25 and please, please get them here.
