The premiere night for "Curse Of The Del Garria" was a complete
success! The action all started at 7.15pm with a special cast/crew
photo session, which was soon joined by our celebrity guests, MP
Michael Crutchfield and TV personalities Nikki Buckley and her
husband Murray.
By 7.30pm the 114-seat cinema quickly became close to housing an
audience of almost 200 – don't ask me how! LoL
MP Michael Crutchfield opened the night with a special introduction
speech with a 59sec clip from our 2002 audio drama leading into the
film itself.
Overall, "Curse Of The Del Garria" was REALLY well received by
critics and the general public alike, receiving a very big round of
applause and verbal praise/appreciation.
After a 2minute intermission the previously undisclosed 1999 fan
film "Time Waits For No Man" followed, getting it's first official
Australian premiere. This also went down well and received applause
from the audience.
The night was not short of praise and I must honestly confess – it
couldn't have gone any better!
