The First Saturday In May Website

It's post time for the Hennegan Brothers (who are UVA Alumni) . . . . see the documentary movie THE FIRST SATURDAY IN MAY (about the history of the Kentucky Derby) its opening weekend.

We have one shot at this. If it does not do business this first weekend, the theaters won't be inviting us back to play the next week. Bring your friends, relatives and co-workers. The money from the box office comes directly back to us - not to a studio.

We are doing this independently by renting the theatres in conjunction with Mark Cuban's Truly Indie program.

If you need additional inspiration, we are donating 25% of the box office from the first week directly to equine research. Click here for related information.

We have been told you will be able to buy tickets 3 or 4 days in advance. Please contact the theatre directly for more info. Our website www.thefirstsaturdayinmay.com has tons of information on the film - including a list of theaters where we will be playing nationally as well as all the great things that are being said about the film. Also, please forward to your friends around the country. We will be playing in 20 plus cities nationwide including New York, Boston, LA, San Fran, Chicago, San Diego, Atlanta, Detroit, Seattle and Denver.

We have spent the last three years of our lives on this film and given it everything we have. Now it comes down to our friends (and their friends) going out on the weekend of 4/18-20 and supporting The Hennegan Brothers.
