Disabilities studies researcher Sari Altschuler will discuss her book with MGH Writer-in-Residence Suzanne Koven, MD, MFA
During America’s first century, citizens with recognized differences that we now call disabilities were accommodated and often accepted. However, as the country grew, these differences became points of exclusion, resulting in various levels of recognized citizenship. Join us October 19 as we explore the history of disability, race and citizenship over the last 250 years and the surprises that are important for understanding the experience of disability in the past and advocating for rights and justice in the present. A book signing will follow the conversation. This is a free hybrid event. A Zoom link will be sent to all registrants closer to the event date.

The Phantom of the Opera — Live in Concert
Experience the legendary 1925 silent film The Phantom of the Opera on the big screen, accompanied live by the New England Film Orchestra, conducted by Gina Naggar, performing Carl Davis’s acclaimed symphonic orchestral score.
Starring Lon Chaney in his iconic portrayal of the Phantom, Rupert Julian’s film was the first major screen adaptation of Gaston Leroux’s 1910 novel and remains one of the defining works of silent cinema.
Davis’s score draws heavily on Gounod’s Faust — the opera at the center of the film’s Paris Opera House setting — while creating a haunting musical identity for the Phantom himself. As Davis described it: “horror, pure horror.” Performed live alongside the film, the score heightens its romance, spectacle, suspense, and terror, transforming this silent masterpiece into an immersive concert-cinema experience.
Beneath the grandeur of the Paris Opera House lives a mysterious masked figure who has become obsessed with young singer Christine Daaé. When Christine discovers the truth behind the voice guiding her career, she is drawn into the Phantom’s hidden world beneath the theater, setting in motion a gothic tale of obsession, jealousy, and forbidden love.
A cinematic classic. A live orchestra. An unforgettable night at the movies.
