The fantastic exhibition of LOTR props currently at Te Papa, the Museum of NZ, is to travel the world over the next few years. RandomHobbit got the details. [More]
A Random Hobbit wrote in to the Museum of NZ, Te Papa, to ask when and where the LOTR props exhibition would travel to next. She got this reply from the museum staff: “The venue in London is the Science Museum in South Kensington. Approximately mid September until January 2004. This is definite. It’s on its way ! The proposed venues in Singapore, Boston and Sydney ( in that order) are the Singapore Science Centre, the Boston Museum of Science and the Sydney Powerhouse Museum. Except for London nothing has been signed off yet with the other museums. Arrangements are still tentative.”UPDATE We’ve just heard that the London exhibition is scheduled to start on September 16.
Gollumayee reports: “Outdoors movie-under-the-night-sky Starlight Cinema in Singapore will be showing LOTR & TTT on 21 Jun 2003 (Saturday) for S$13. First movie starts at 8 pm. Much healthier watching in the open air than in an enclosed cinema hall.” π [I notice you can also win air tickets to NZ – Tehanu]
Jess reports that David Wenham [Faramir] and Hugo Weaving [Elrond] will co-star in a 4-hour mini-series titled “After the Deluge”. They play brothers who struggle to come to terms with the roles they have played as brothers, husbands, sons and men. It will air in Oz on Channel 10 later this year.
