Update #65: World Premiere Sell Out Crowd?
Good morning, wonderful Stars!
I found out moments ago that the World Premiere screening of Rising Star is only 24 ticket sales away from selling out its World Premiere in Seattle, WA on Sunday 5/6 at 6pm. A movie you helped make a reality is about to sell out its first screening on the other side of the country. =o
It's going to be an amazing night! We are joined by two great teams who will be screening their films SYNC and MEN WHO DON'T WORK.
If you know anyone in the Seattle, WA area, could you tell them about the screening? It's because of you that Rising Star is an honest to goodness completed feature film.
Marty and I have been contacting family, filmmakers, and press in Seattle but our connections are mostly on the east coast.
Can you share the info and this link on your Facebook page or forward this email to someone you know?

If you have any ideas or suggestions please leave a comment below or on the Rising Star Facebook Page.
Thank you, Stars!
