Gravitas Ventures picks up Dorie Barton’s WELCOME TO THE SHOW and targets November 23 release
Dorie Barton’s WELCOME TO THE SHOW picked up by Gravitas Ventures.
Gravitas Ventures, a Red Arrow Studios Company, has announced they’ve acquired North American rights to the feature film, Welcome to the Show, and will release it through their hybrid distribution system composed of Comcast, Amazon Prime Video, Peacock, Spectrum, Apple TV, Dish, Google Play, DirecTV, and more at the conclusion of the film’s successful film festival tour on November 23, 2021.
Written and directed by Dorie Barton (Girl Flu.), Welcome to the Show begins when an invitation to a mysterious theatre piece, “The Show,” sends four best friends down a rabbit hole of mistrust and confusion as they try to figure out who are the actors, who is the audience, who is doing this to them, and why. Morality gets twisted, friendships get tested, and the only thing holding four best friends together is the fractured belief that there must be some kind of logic to the madness.
The film stars newcomers Richard Follin, Dillon Douglasson, Keegan Garant, and Christopher Martin. Producers are Barton and S.C.V. Taylor.
“Barton’s film is a great addition to the cannon of classic college movies. While the rabbit hole the characters fall deeper and deeper into is both hilarious and absurd, the acting and complex relationships keep it grounded and very relatable for anyone who has gone through a transitorily period and is unsure of what happens next. We cannot wait for audiences to see for themselves what “The Show” is truly about!” – David Sullivan, Gravitas Ventures’ Sales and Acquisitions Manager.
The film’s soundtrack by Pickled Bones will also be released on all major music platforms on November 23rd.
The deal was negotiated by Sullivan for Gravitas Ventures, and Dorie Barton of Flip Side Films and S.C.V.Taylor of Monopol Film Company.
