On Friday 26 November Princess Pictures and ABC TV need a crowd of people for the new series Outland.
Outland is written by Melbourne's John Richards, who (among other awesome things) has been a guest reviewer on here. He also blogs at The Outland Institute, which became a JOYFM radio show last year.
Princess Pictures have produced amazing shows like Summer Heights High, We Can Be Heroes and John Safran's Race Relations.
The show will be broadcast on the ABC in 2011 and is already being described as “The
best gay and lesbian science fiction fan club themed comedy series
ever." Yes, there are Dr Who jokes.
And you can be part of it!
Volunteers will be the crowd for a re-creation of the Pride march.
To get all the info you need, email outlandpride@gmail.com
or go to this Facebook page and RSVP.
It's a great chance to spend a day seeing how a show is made and you might get your gorgeous face or elbow on the show
