“We are thrilled to start our tenure at the Astor Theatre with a premiere for Women He’s Undressed,” said Palace Cinemas’ CEO Benjamin Zeccola. “The film features such wonderful footage from the golden age of Hollywood; it made perfect sense that this should be our choice as Palace re-open the Astor, which itself has such a rich history in showing classic film.”
Women He’s Undressed takes an intimate look at the life of three-time Academy Award winning Australian costume designer, Orry-Kelly. Kelly’s design credits include; Hollywood’s biggest studios, most memorable stars, and hit films such as Casablanca, Some Like it Hot, Oklahoma! and An American in Paris.
The Astor Theatre, which is one of the last remaining single-screen theatres in the southern hemisphere, will re-open to the public on Sunday June 7 with the red carpet gala event for Women He’s Undressed following on Thursday June 25.
Furthermore, The Astor’s new calendar will be revealed on Thursday May 21.
