Australian Film Premiere Of Crawdads In Bowen
The Bowen Summergarden Cinema will once again feature an Australian film premiere at its theatre institution, but this time thanks to a local community organisation rather than a Hollywood production.
Bowen Zonta Club will be running their own premiere of Where the Crawdads Sing on Thursday next week, a film-adaptation of the bestselling novel of the same name.
It will coincide with the Australian release of the film, making it one of only two cinemas in the country playing it.
Zonta Club Member and organiser of the event, Kerry Moloney said Zonta run a film premiere each year, but with this special event the studio were allowing the local cinema to run it as an actual national debut showing.
“We try to do a movie premiere every year and try to choose movies that are in demand – popular movies – but ones that have a female orientation,” Ms Moloney said.
“When Ben De Luca [Owner of Summergarden] approached us with this movie, he actually said the premiere of the first showing Australia is happening in Sydney on the 21.
“That is special for us, we feel very honoured that we in Bowen – such a small town – are going to be showing it for the first time.”
The female-led film corresponds well with the global organisations message of empowering women – both financially, educationally, and through representation.
“A lot of people are reading the novel, and so that’s where we thought it’d be perfect, as well as being produced by women, including Reese Witherspoon.
The event on July 21 will also feature raffles and lucky door prizes, with all proceeds going direct to future Zonta Club projects.
The $25 dollar ticket includes a light supper and complimentary glass of champagne, with tickers purchasable at Hickmott’s Supanews in Bowen, or online through phoning Veronica at 0428 648 540.
