Wurlitzer Pipe Organ Restored in Union County Arts Center
Show Notes
The Union County Arts Center in Rahway opened as the Rahway Theatre in 1928. There on opening night was a Wurlitzer theatre organ. The organ has stayed with the theatre through the years and on Tuesday, September 23, the grand unveiling of the restored instrument took place. Listen to a little of the music from the organ as it accompanies a 1928 Felix the Cat cartoon, Woos Whoopee. The organist is Bernie Anderson, Jr.
