Chicken Shop Date turns its final series into a cinema event
Amelia Dimoldenberg will bring the final Chicken Shop Date series to cinemas for one night on November 24, Variety reports. The event spans the UK, Ireland and Paris through a collaboration with YouTube's Cine Club. All six episodes will screen alongside exclusive new material, with the unreleased finale available before its November 27 YouTube debut. Invite-only premieres in London and New York will take place on November 16 and 17, with Dimoldenberg at Q&As. The screening closes a format she has made for 12 years.
THE BREAKDOWN
A creator with a loyal series audience can pitch a ticketed screening without promising a full theatrical release. Clear guest appearance rights and music for cinemas before signing an exhibitor agreement. Negotiate the event revenue split separately from the online distribution deal, and define who pays for the extra footage. If a sponsor wants the advance screening window, charge for that event association without handing over permanent rights to the format.
