About

Join us at the Colonial Theatre on Sunday September 18, 2022 at 2:00 PM for a celebration of 100 years of the mighty Wurlitzer theatre organ presented by the Theatre Organ Society of the Delaware Valley!

The oldest working theatre organ in Chester County, the Wurlitzer organ highlights the roaring twenties in a wonderful spectacle of vintage cars, dancing by The Franklin Follies (flappers), and the sounds of the 20’s.

This spectacular event is followed by a complimentary wine and cheese reception at the Colonial Theatre in the Garden Suite and Rooftop Deck.

ABOUT THE ORGANIST

Mark Herman is one of America’s busiest theatre organists, performing concerts and silent film presentations across the US and abroad. In 2012, he was named the American Theatre Organ Society’s Organist of the Year and is the youngest person ever to receive the prestigious honor. Previously, he was overall winner of the Society’s Young Theatre Organist Competition in 2004.

Mark has been featured on several episodes of American Public Media’s Pipedreams program, and has performed for countless conventions of the American Theatre Organ Society, American Guild of Organists, and Organ Historical Society. On the international stage, he has toured in Australia, New Zealand, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. Additionally, his arrangements and performances have been heard both on television and in motion pictures. In 2019, he was honored to be featured alongside the Los Angeles Philharmonic for a rare organ solo cameo.

He currently resides in Los Angeles, where he is President of Mark Herman Music LLC, a provider of organ-related services and products. He is in demand as an organ consultant and project manager, as well as a voicing specialist and tonal consultant for Allen Organs and is proud to be an Allen Artist, showcasing new Allen Organs in the US and beyond.

This program benefits the Theatre Organ Society of the Delaware Valley (TOSDV) Theatre Organ Restoration Fund. For additional information visit TOSDV.org; email info@tosdv.com.
