We would like to say thank you to all those cast and crew and industry folk who attended the Why Must The Show Go On? official cast and crew launch last night at the Australian Centre For The Moving Image (ACMI) in Melbourne! We had over 80 people attend the screening and the laughter in the cinema was music to our ears! We would especially like to thank the ACMI staff for helping to make the night such a success and for assisting us in the smooth running of the screening and after party.

The feedback received was really positive and encouraging and we are very much looking forward to moving onto Phase Two of the project - details to be made public when available!

Thank you again to all those who attended and stay tuned for updates as they come to hand!

Happy New Year everyone! Well, it's almost a year since the cameras rolled on Why Must The Show Go On? and we're finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

We have decided on a venue for the launch - and a date - it will be held in February 2010. The launch will be invitation only and a chance for cast and crew to catch up and celebrate what is shaping up to be a funny and very enjoyable film (if we do say so ourselves). It also gives us a chance to say thank you to all those who supported the film. The sound edit continues while the film is being graded and readied for mastering. Oh, and while we're here - Merry Christmas everyone!
