‘Silent screen, living sound’
Performance at Shambles Theatre, 20
September 2025, reviewed by Shamus Baker
Audiences were treated to an invigorating
immersion into the past on Saturday 20
September at Shambles Theatre, where pianist
David Selfe and percussionist Jeremy Fitzsimons
provided an ingenious musical accompaniment
to two silent films of the great Charlie Chaplin, A
Dog’s Life (1918) and The Pawn Shop (1916). All
music was composed by Selfe, and adapted by
Fitzsimons for their duo.
While this is not the place for a synopsis of either
film, both involved Chaplin’s iconic Little Tramp
persona in various scenarios of mayhem, trickery
and social faux pas, with his eventual triumph occurring against both the odds of ordinary logic
and his own relentlessly inventive disdain for normal codes of behaviour – to great comic
