The Vitagraph STory

Written by Nellie Perera and Nina Wise

A multimedia play about three scrappy artists and a daring entrepreneur whose talent and vision gave rise to the motion picture industry in America.

The story of J. Stuart Blackton, Albert E. Smith, Pop Rock and Florence Turner is an iconic origin tale of outsiders shaping a new technology that conquers the world. 

Utilizing historical sources, immersive projections, live music and sound, The Vitagraph Story brings to life these revolutionary artists whose discoveries continue to impact the daily lives of billions of people.

Join us as we celebrate the spirit of adventure, creativity, and ambition that defined the original Golden Age of cinema.
