Flat Earth Society

Flat Earth Society Orchestra, the beloved Belgian 15-piece orchestra, brings incredible energy to the screening of The Oyster Princess (1919), a darkly satirical silent film by celebrated director Ernst Lubitsch. Through a combination of big brass, bass, sax, drums, keyboard, and guitar, Flat Earth Society performs an original live score by composer and band leader Peter Vermeersch, playing perfectly in-sync with the film. As the comedy plays out on screen, it’s impossible to resist the enthusiasm and joy that emanates from the musicians to the audience.
