Summer at Snape – The Kid

We perform Chaplin’s Masterpiece ‘The Kid’ as part of the Summer at Snape festival at Snape Maltings.

Widely considered one of the greatest films of the silent era, The Kid is a 1921 silent comedy-drama film written, produced, directed, and starring Charlie Chaplin. The opening title “A comedy with a smile–and perhaps a tear”, sums up its perfect blend of laughs and pathos.
