THE RISLEY BROTHERS! TONITE AT HARTFORD FLAVOR!

Tonite is the nite...

I hope to see a lot of people laughing!

In case you missed any of the other one million posts from myself, Elmwood, and the whole Elmwood gang, here's the info one more time!

And we made the paper! Check out today's Hartford Courant and CT Now!

Let's get the spring started with

"The Risley Brothers"!
Elmwood Productions is proud to invite you to The Hartford Flavor Company on April 27th for the very first screening of our newest web series!
From the people that brought you "Steve the Vampire" and the award winning "HEAD" -
"The Risley Brothers" is a comedic story of Wes and Quig, who have just re-opened their father's defunct bar. They are doing their best to keep the place respectable in spite of the local looneys, crazy ex-girlfriends, a visit from the Devil, and even their own bad habits!

Hartford Flavor Company is the parent company of Wild Moon, a line of unique, flavored liqueurs made of all natural ingredients. Visit our production facility & Tasting Room as part of the nite! A Silver medal winner at the 2015 & 2016 NY World Wine & Spirits Competition. Wild Moon Liqueurs Birch flavor recognized by an international publication as CT's most unique spirit.

Joining us at the screening will be Robert Fullerton for a performance of his music before the movie begins! Robert provided the theme song for the show; "Hard To Be Gone", and several of his tunes are featured throughout the series! - https://www.facebook.com/rcfmusic/?pnref=lhc

And we'll have Bradley Taffy there! Providing all of you with amazing kettle corn, taffy, and maybe some suprises!

And... Yup, another and! Avery's Soda! The awesome team from Avery's will be there to help out the thirsty, and hopefully even mix it up with some Wild Moon and see what kind of flavors will blow out taste buds away!

Rated PG-13 for some suggestive humor, and a few colorful words.

$5.00 admission to the screening. Doors Open at 6:00 PM, the pre-show with Robert Fullerton is at 7:00, and the film begins at 7:30.
Times are subject to change - We'll keep everything up to date if anything does!

Wow... A wrap on "The Risley Brothers"!

So Kermit needs to know...

If is too early to decorate for Christmas?

We wrapped shooting on the "Risley Brothers" series last nite...

Both a great feeling and a little sad, but if people like it we'll do a second series!

We're hoping to have it out there and premiered in February, and I can't wait for people to see it!

Here's some behind the scenes pictures from last nite!

Thanks to Hartford Flavor Company for all their support on this show, and for letting us invade their space last nite!

Did I Mention The Screenings Friday and Saturday are BYOB?!?

So it's after 8 PM, and in two days Elmwood will be screening "The Risley Brothers" at Paris In Plantsville. I'm kicking back there now, having just finished the set up for the weekend.

Five years ago right now J.R. Calvo and I first came to PiP (Paris In Plantsville) to pitch a screening here.

Wow.

Where have the years gone?

So much has changed...

Good and bad.

And I've lived through it.

And came out OK.

I want to thank everyone who has had ANYTHING to do with Elmwood and Paris over the past five years.

You know who you are, it's too many to list right now.

And I want to thank all of you who have come out to see the Elmwood screenings...

I really hope you come to this one. It started here, at PiP.

With Jordan and Sean... And our laughter. The laughter that carried over to all the Elmwood guys, especially Mike and Nick, who have spent hours upon hours here...

Please, come see the screenings this weekend! I promise you'll laugh!

This show, as simple and fun as it is means so much to me. For so many reasons... Come out to the screening and ask me why at the Q&A's!

OK...

Here's all the details for the screenings, stolen from PiP's event page-

Paris In Plantsville continues it's film screening series this summer with a short film double feature!
August 21 and 22 we'll be screening the thriller "The Hollow Waltz" from Euphio Films, and the comedy "The Risley Brothers" from Elmwood Productions.

And this is just the start! Look for more screening and film events to be announced.

The doors open at 7PM for the screening on both nights, and the films start at 8PM, $5.00 at the door for admission. Following the screening the film makers and cast members will be on hand for a Q&A
And it's BYOB!
