Tom Trenney, winner of the AGO National Competition in
Organ Improvisation, will bring to life Harold Lloyd’s
silent film Speedy
on Sunday afternoon, February 24 at 3pm in Hayden
Auditorium on the Hiram College campus.  In the 1928
film shot on location in New York City, “Speedy” loses
his job as soda-jerk and spends the day with his girl
at Coney Island.  Then, he becomes a cab driver and
delivers the real Babe Ruth to Yankee Stadium.  When
the railroad tries to run the last horse-drawn trolley
out of business, Speedy organizes the old timers to
challenge them.  The hair-raising cab ride through
Manhattan and many other scenes allow Trenney ample
opportunity to display his fantastic skills of organ
improvisation.  This Hiram Community Trust event for
all ages is free and open to the public.
