  • <p>The Pioneer Open Air Theatre World Premiere of the Movie - “A Town like Alice” - Photo courtesy of Cal Whalan - GREG LYNCH SAYS - A major highlight for the Kenna family was the world premiere of the movie “A Town like Alice” held on 24th July 1956, with the the stars of the film Peter Finch and Virgina McKenna attending in person. The occasion was also used to raise funds for the Royal Flying Doctor Service. Locals arrived in casual dress, carrying thick rugs and cushions for the open-air screening. The theatre was decorated with bunting and palm leaves for the night. Peter Finch invited Beryl Oliver, the air hostess on his flight, to be his guest on the night. The two sat together, smoking throughout the screening. Nevil Shute and his wife also attended, as did future Prime Minister Gough Whitlam. - Acknowledgement Woman’s Weekly…<script type="text/javascript">

              which runs only the best in films, again has its usual bright programme for tonight.
