Drive invited to attend Film Premiere: ‘The British Guide to Showing Off’.

Previews – November 6 | General Release – November 11

‘The British Guide to Showing Off’ is a unique feature-length documentary film that follows the incredible life of British artist and living legend Andrew Logan, the creator of the anarchic and utterly outrageous Alternative Miss World Show, a spectacular costume pageant and fancy dress party for grown ups.

The film charts the mounting of the legendary Alternative Miss World event, ricocheted into the limelight back in 2009 when Drive Productions brought their creative production expertise to produce the show at top London venue, the Roundhouse.

Running since 1972, the Alternative Miss World is part beauty contest, part stage-show and is renowned for its celebration of what its founder, feted artist and designer Andrew Logan, calls ‘creative free-reign’. Needless to say we managed to ensure the event retained its trademark chaos and was successfully captured by on film.

‘The British Guide to Showing-Off’ is now out on general release in cinemas across the UK from 11th November 2011 with special dress-up previews on the Sunday 6th November. From the acclaimed production scheme Film London Microwave, directed by Jes Benstock and produced by Dorigen Hammond, this is one film we cannot recommend enough.

‘Not about beauty but about transformation’, it is a vivid and colourful reminder that the ordinary can indeed become extraordinary.

Joyous.
