“Always a Bridesmaid” kicks off the Pittsburgh Independent Film Festival
The delightful romantic comedy “Always a Bridesmaid” opens the festival this Friday night. The film was written and produced by CSW’s own Wendy Grube. It’s directed by our Jim Helfrich. Many CSW members and friends worked on this film. It stars Julianne Avolio as Lizzie and features Nicole Beattie, Samantha Westervelt, April May Ohms, Minda Briley, Mike Buzzelli, Kevin Hejna, Andy Coleman, Johnny Sikma, Charlie Mengine and many other talented local actors. Please come out to support them and local independent film.
Join us at the opening/award ceremony for the Pittsburgh Independent Film Festival, Friday July 15 at 6:30pm.
The evening will begin with the presentation of awards followed by live music and then what you all will be waiting for, the showing of “Always a Bridesmaid.” Afterwards you will be able to meet the filmmakers in attendance.
