The Carolina Theatre is Kickstarting an Historic Campaign.
Welcome to another edition of Fridays With MVP! This is your humble host and narrator Streebo back with you once again. I’m going to start this edition out a bit differently as I am going to shift the focus over to the Carolina Theatre and their ongoing Kickstarter campaign.
They are raising funds to create an historic exhibit inside the Carolina Theatre. I cannot say this enough that if you are a filmmaker anywhere in the United States that you want your movie to play at the Carolina Theatre. Help recognize it’s rich history by helping them now.
From Meredith Vey’s latest update:
“Thank you Backers – we are more than halfway there to our goal of $13,000 by January 20th to support the Historic Exhibit at the Carolina Theatre of Durham!
For today – 9 days left – we are asking all 72 of our campaign backers to post the Historic Exhibit link to your facebook status. That way you can tell your friends, your friends can tell their friends, their friends can tell their friends and on and on!”
Welcome to another edition of Fridays with MVP! This week we have something special for you as MVP’s own Kathy Butler Sandvoss has started her own fanpage on Facebook. Friends of MVP will know Kathy from the recent trailer for G.H.O.S.T. and all of you will be able to see the amazing performance she conjured up for the making of G.H.O.S.T. when the movie hits DVD and theaters this winter. Check out Kathy Butler Sandvoss’ Corner with the touch of a button. There’s wine and cheese for all.
Tonight, Streebo made the trip out to an advance screening of the remake of Tom Holland’s 1985 classic Fright Night. Fright Night (2011) stars Colin Farrell, Anton Yelchin, David Tennant, and Imogen Poots. As a quick aside – is that really this actress’ name? Imogen Poots? Is this part of that cosmic joke the universe is playing on us to see if we pay attention? I don’t know. We’ll have to leave that to the scholars and philosophers to decide. Fright Night tells the tale of Charley Brewster and the not so friendly neighborhood vampire that lives next door played by Colin Farrell.

Mutantville Productions is extremely proud to announce the addition of local actor – Caroline O’Neil to the cast of “G.H.O.S.T.”
Caroline has apearred in several local productions including the Vintage Seduction Trailer, The Trial and Chekov’s Children for director Robert Fillion. Caroline is an extremely talented and vivacious individual who just happens to be a master of education as well as a master of fine arts.
Director J.T. McRoberts states, “I met Caroline at last month’s Charlotte Film Community meetup and was impressed by her cheerful attitude and overall effervescence. Caroline jokingly stated that she wanted to join us on “G.H.O.S.T.” Being the writer and director, I decided to call her bluff and wrote her into one of the new scenes.” Caroline will join lead actress Kathy Sandvoss on the set this coming weekend to film one of the new scenes for act one of “G.H.O.S.T.”
MVP is very happy to welcome Caroline to the talented cast of “G.H.O.S.T.” We look forward to working with her on this and many projects to come!
You can find out more about Caroline by viewing her resume here.

Last night, MVP held another productive meeting with head costume designer Luis Machiao of Machicao couture designs. Producers Geo Swanko and Streebo Majic were on hand to discuss all of the finer points of costuming, locations, and even set design. Lead actress, Kathy Sandvoss, came by to try on several outfits for this weekend’s shoot. We are all very excited as the wheels continue to turn – moving us closer and closer to the start of production.
