"6th And Santa Fe" star Will Yun Lee will be attending the June 28th screening at the PlayHouse West Film Festival it was announced today in Hollywood. Also on hand will be Gunny Entertainment partners Mike Gunther (Director/Writer) and Mike Behrman (Executive Producer/Writer) to participate in an after screening Q&A session following the 10:30 AM showing at the El Portal Theater in North Hollywood.
A brief teaser/trailer has been playing on YouTube for the past week:
Other Directors and Writers will be on hand too. Playhouse West has a long history of famous attendees that they are understandably proud of:
"This idea of an ensemble of actors who train and do plays together has grown to include film productions. In 1995, our long-time staff member, Jeff Goldblum, directed a film for Showtime, Little Surprises, which starred an ensemble of Playhouse West actors along with such notables as Rod Steiger and Julie Harris. This short film went on to garner an Academy Award nomination for Best Motion Picture Short."

Update:
The screening was a great success with a full house enjoying the film. At the end, Writer/Director Mike Gunther and Writer/Executive Producer Mike Behrman took the stage before a highly appreciative audience to helm a question and answer panel. They fielded questions from the audience of festival goers and film makers on everything from the dramatic theme of the film, to production choices as well as difficulties encountered in trying to bring such an ambitious project to the screen.
Update:
Currently Gunther/Behrman are in negotiations with a number of stars eager to participate in the "6th And Santa Fe" theatrical feature. Names to be posted as they become available.
