K-Kats - Why Be Good Movie

Why Be Good? is a classic flapper comedy from the jazz age, released at the tail end of the silent film era.

Karen Rentko and her K-Kats put a lot of time into arranging a traditional jazz live score to accompany the movie and it came through brilliantly. They completed a score for this full-length film, ranging from sound effects matching the action to full-on songs featuring a guest vocalist.

The lively tunes accompanying the dance sequences are exciting, and the trumpet/trombone duet as the onscreen characters sang “Sweet Adeline” is hilarious. There will be a costume contest with pizes before the movie, so we hope the audience will be dressed up in their 1920s finest, so it will be a hotsy-totsy bash full of old-timey fun for everyone involved.

Cost: $20.00 at the door
