Hey everybody,
we’re excited to announce that The Rainbow Kid will start it’s theatrical run across Canada next week! As part of the Canadian indie film series, it will screen in over 15 theatres across Canada starting on May 4th. Please help spread the word and get people as excited as we are. Right now it’s a limited release. What does that mean? It means it will only be playing at a select number of theatres and for a short amount of time. Some cities/towns only have one screening while others have a week long run. However, if we can fill seats and sell out screenings then the runs will be extended and other theatres will be added.
Toronto screenings will take place at The Carlton cinema starting May 6th. As soon as tickets become available through their website we’ll let you know. I also think that some of the cast and myself will be doing some Q&A’s after the Friday and Saturday night screenings. We’ll confirm shortly.
Here’s a list of all upcoming screenings. Hopefully it’s playing at a theatre near you. If not, just drive. It’s well worth it. Makes a great first date movie.

Please do what you can and help support this little movie that could. It took us over 5 years to get to this point. Now we finally have the opportunity for people to see all the hard work that’s gone into making it.
Here’s a new theatrical poster for the film. I think it’s pretty cool. What do you think? And any theatrical release wouldn’t be complete without a new trailer.
Festivals
Dylan and I just got back from Beijing. We had a great time. With 4 screenings in total the response to the film was wonderful. Lots of interesting questions and lots of translating. We’ll have some pics soon! We also took home Best Feature Film at the Vail Film Festival. We would like to thank the audience and judges for this great award. Wish we could have been there. More exciting info to come. But for now, let’s focus on the up-coming screenings. Thanks!
