Location

The Wanamaker Building, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 19107, United States

You are invited to a screening of the cinematic masterpiece Nosferatu, a symphony of horror. Enjoy this classic silent film the way it was meant to be experienced: with the beauty and drama of live organ accompaniment. Film tickets include popcorn and hot chocolate to warm your hands when Nosferatu sends chills up your spine. For a more complete experience, join us for a reception that includes hors d’oeuvres and champagne as well as refreshments and reserved seating for the film.

This cinematic event will take place in Greek Hall, one of the original auditoriums in the iconic Wanamaker Building in Center City. Greek Hall boasts a 1929 Wurlitzer organ that has been restored to its original beauty by the Friends of the Wanamaker Organ. Unlike the massive Grand Court organ in the Wanamaker central atrium, the Greek Hall Wurlitzer was designed specifically to be used in movie palaces and has been updated to show films with organ accompaniment in the present day.

VIP Reception | 5:30 p.m.

Screening | $40 | 6:30 p.m.

Screening and VIP Reception tickets may be purchased online until 11:59 p.m. Tuesday, January 30. Screening tickets may be purchased at the door to Greek Hall. To find Greek Hall, enter Macy’s on the Market Street side and walk through the men’s department to the elevators or escalators. Go up to the third floor; Greek Hall is right at the top of the escalator, or down the hall to the right as you exit the elevator. Look for members of our staff wearing Nosferatu name badges if you need assistance.
