Hi all

We're cranking up The Rocky Horror Picture Show New Year's Eve. It's a bit of a coup for us as we've never been able to screen it before at an outdoor show. Reason is it plays every (2nd) Friday in Sydney as a late show so Fox protect that show by stopping anyone else running it in the Sydney Metropolitan Area. Now we've moved away with the Galaxy Travelling Cinema we can run it and bookings are looking mightily good. Really looking forward to it. We're selling 'Partici...pation Packs' on the night containing rice, water pistols, rubber gloves and newspaper.

Anyone else running anything a little different NYE?

John

..ah, the good times I've had when running RHPS for the midnight shows that I've ran in the past.

...and helping the janitors clean up the HUGE mess in the auditorium....(!!)

We've got our second annual free afternoon of cartoons mixed with performances on The Mighty Wurlitzer followed by a couple live bands later in the evening. It's going to be a long day.

Sold out of every 'Participation Pack' and had lots of fun seeing a mass of rice flying around in the wedding scene.

Of course there were those who made the effort and dressed up as well.

A great night...

Merry New Year!!
