Hi,
I've just done the first gig of the year after a bit of a break during which we have been shooting Otway The Movie. It's looking fabulous so far.
Leeds City Varieties
 |
|
We are planning to film some of the spectacular live footage on April 7th at Leeds City Varieties - this wonderful theatre (which was used to film the Good Old Days) has just been completely refurbished for the Filming.
We're also planning some special Guests, special effects and some great audience shots. It's also a perfect place to chat to some of you guys on camera to get your perspective on the History of Otway.

Otway the Movie
|
Tickets for the first showing of Otway The Movie are flying out of the production office - The Royal Circle has sold out and well over half the Stall seats are gone already - it's going to be a great 60th birthday :)
The Premiere of Otway the Movie will take place between Noon and 3:00 pm - which should allow plenty of time for anyone from the UK main-land to be able to get over their hangover, get home and be at work on Monday to brag to all their mates.
We're sorting out a whole weekend of events for the Premiere weekend: Willy Show on Fri 5th, Band Show on Sat 6th, and a bit of an afternoon party after the Premiere on the 7th. Richard Cotton is planning a special Weekend ticket package (including hotels) for all the events, details should be announced in the next couple of weeks.

Sponsorship/Product Placement
 |
|
We've started to look at anyone interested in sponsoring the Movie and it's associated events, and/or in product placement for the Movie. If this is something you may be able to help with, please get back to us.
