“Goodbye, Mr. Chips” An Opera by Gordon Getty (USF)

Submitted by the Event Organizer

USF is thrilled to welcome composer Gordon Getty back to campus to celebrate the San Francisco film premiere of his fourth opera, Goodbye, Mr. Chips.

Goodbye, Mr. Chips is based on the popular 1934 novella Goodbye, Mr. Chips and other stories by James Hilton. Goodbye, Mr. Chips tells the story of a teacher at Brookfield, an all-boys English boarding school to which “Chips” dedicates most of his adult life. The film chronicles Chips’ story of love, loss, and learning over his decades-long tenure at Brookfield.

This film event is free for USF students, alumni, employees, and community members. The program will feature a pre-screening reception with food and conversation for everyone.

Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of an exclusive film screening from a legendary composer and USF distinguished alumnus. Reserve your ticket today!
