Description

Keith Williams co-organised a special programme event at the XXIX International James Joyce Symposium in Glasgow in June 2024 (also open to the public): ‘An Evening at the Volta’, at the Glasgow Film Theatre. This comprised surviving films Joyce showed at one of Dublin’s earliest cinemas in 1909-10, using prints from the British Film Institute and live piano accompaniment. Keith provided specialist commentary on the Volta films in the context of Joyce’s work and took Q&A from the audience.
