SCREENING THE MOVIE IN YOUR CITY
Hello fellow Ragamuffins!
First, thank you for the time to read this and potentially support a hosting of the movie, “RAGAMUFFIN.” Just to keep you up to date on a few details. One, the WORLD PREMIERE is set. January 9th 2014, in Wichita Kansas. If you would like to join the me & the Ragamuffin Movie Team watch the movie and celebrate. We’d love to have you. You can purchase your tickets here: http://www.itickets.com/events/314057
Secondly, many are wondering about long term distribution plans (Theatrical, DVD, CABLE, INTERNET, ETC…). We are currently talking, and in negotiations with some companies for the different areas of distribution. As soon as we get all the details finalized we will post them on FACEBOOK & TWITTER. And we will need all the help we can get to get the word out.
In the meantime, we are planning a “RAGAMUFFIN MOVIE TOUR”. Right after the premiere date in January we will be hitting the road for 2-3 months, going from City to City to SCREEN THE MOVIE. And we could USE YOUR HELP!
We need VENUES! We are trying to pull off the impossible. We are trying to do this tour with NO UPFRONT MONEY or ADVERTISING DOLLARS. Yikes! Here’s the type of Venues we are looking for:
A. Churches- that seat 500-1000+ (They need to have a LARGE CENTER SCREEN, with HD PROJECTION)
B. Movie Theatres
C. Venues- College campuses, community theatres etc…(they must have great movie theatre style screen, & projection)
*Why are we sticklers when it comes to high quality projection? Well, if we are going to charge ticket prices we want everyone to get their $ worth.
Here’s the deal:
A) If you are the decision maker at one of these places, and are interested to HOST the screening, please contact us asap. Email us at: ragamuffinmovie@gmail.com
B) If you go to a church or know of a venue that would work…DO US A BIG FAVOR…Please talk to the DECISION MAKERS at your Church or the local venue FIRST. They may not want to do something like that, so make sure to see if they are interested FIRST. If they are please CONNECT US AT: RAGAMUFFINMOVIE@GMAIL.COM
How much does it cost?
A) It will be $10+ a ticket, which will be paid through ITICKETS.COM
B) Churches/Organizations, will have the option to buy out the event on the tour
C) Once the event is booked/scheduled details will be worked out regarding donated tickets for ministry purposes, and event/church will have option to sell tickets at their venue in advance.
D) If event is sold out ahead of time, there will be potentially options to add an additional screening
Timeline:
–We are trying to plan the tour and get the INITIAL dates nailed down quickly. This way we can start spreading the word. Additional tour dates can be added after the initial tour has LAUNCHED. So do us a very big favor, help us PLAN THE MOVIE TOUR, BRING US TO YOUR CHURCH, OR LOCAL VENUE, and help us get out this wonderful story about RICH MULLINS, which we believe is a wonderful story about “the reckless raging fury that they call the love of God.”
Be God’s,

I am in central Texas and would be glad to work with our local churches to screen at local theatre. Let me know how we can make it work.
Hey There!
My name is David Schultz. I’m the director & producer of the movie. Thank you for responding.
How it would work, is that once we have a venue selected, and were good to go, we’d start selling tickets from ITICKETS.COM, then we come to town on the date, and show the movie. Depending on the date, Myself or Dave Mullins (Rich’s Brother) might do a q/a or speak.
If you wanted to sell some tickets, we could provide you with a certain amount (from Itickets.com), (would be a few bucks cheaper) or we could just keep it online to keep it easy:-)
Feel free to call me and we can talk through the details & dates: 323-632-9289.
Do you have any venues in mind?
Kind regards,
David Schultz

Hello David, I have been following your process for about 7 months now and am excited about the movie. We moved to Kansas just after Rich passed away and my sons both followed his music, as did I. This movie has the ability to bring a lot of people to understand and see for themselves the “reality” of what being a Christian is all about. I now live in Phoenix, AZ and would like to see about having the movie shown at our church. We have two campuses and one is in an old movie theater so it would fit your criteria as a venue. I will speak with the powers to be and see what I can do. I will give you a call to discuss more of the details. God Bless you in your endeavor, Rich Mullins is someone who should have a movie about his life and his dedication to Jesus! Thanks.
Hello again, David. Our Calvary Chapel- Milwaukee Church is too small for your venue requirements. I live in Menomonee Falls, WI. and am wanting to bring it to Marcus Theater- Menomonee Falls, WI. The website address is http://www.marcustheaters.com. With what initial information and the like should I approach this theater in the hopes of having “RAGAMUFFIN” the movie shown there? Help!
Wow, I can’t believe I am doing this…. I have never done anything like this before. I live near Montgomery, Alabama and I can think of at least 2 churches, one college campus, and one community theatre that I could talk to about this project. I am not sure about movie theatres. How technical do I have to get with them? Sounds like all I have to do is promote the movie, check out the seating and locate a large screen with HC projector. Is that right?
I live in a small Midwestern town (100 miles N of Wichita) – Abilene, Ks. The perfect venue in our town would be at the Great Plains Theatre. It’s a beautiful old Church converted for live theatre productions. A few years ago, a movie projection system was added and it is GREAT for viewing movies. I have written to the executive director and alerted him about your project. The theatre has had Mitch McVicker perform there at least a couple times (because I went) so I’m hoping this encourages him/them to check into showing your movie. I told him you were on fb so I’m hoping he checks it all out and will bring the movie to Abilene.
Hi, My name is Jason. I live in Perryton Texas. I would love to work with you to bring this to our town. I will check with our local theater and see if that is good for him. We had done events like this several times in the past and have a great working relationship with the theater owner. What would costs on our side be?
WELL THERE WOULD BE NO COSTS ON YOUR SIDE, AS LONG AS WE COULD HAVE THE VENUE FOR FREE. IF THERE WOULD BE A COST FOR THE THEATRE, IF YOU GUYS WOULD COVER, WE WOULD GIVE YOU THE DIFFERENCE IN “TICKETS” $10 A TICKET VALUE YOU COULD SELL TO RECOUP?? JUST AN IDEA: PLEASE EMAIL ME @DAVIDLEOSCHULTZ@GMAIL.COM IF THIS SEEMS LIKE A GOOD IDEA…
I live in Athens Georgia. We can rent the local theatre Cine but the screening rooms are smaller than what you indicate. Here is a link. Let me know and there is a group here who will begin working on making this happen or looking for a larger venue. Thanks! http://athenscine.com/facilityrental.php
I live in arkasas r u guys coming here?
Hi David, my name is Nolan Martin, I live in Columbus Ohio,,, and if you know anything about my city, WE have a huge university, The Ohio State University, there are several churches in the area that would probably host if we were giving the opportunity. I have been following the progress of this to the point of irritation wondering if this thing would ever see the light of day:) Learned about Rich’s life, have become a fan and am a avid film lover, music lover, actor who loves and appreciates great cinema. This movie HAS to come to Columbus Ohio. Thank you and God Bless
My email address is Nolanamartin27@aol.com. Thank you again.
Do you have a list available of cities already booked? That could be helpful in big cities!
Hi David, I saw your guys are coming to Columbus Ohio on January 18th, We have several great locations for this in town. We have the Rave, Crosswoods theatre, I go to Grace Church in Polaris, and the church has enough space in the auditoriium to show this. If you’re interested, send me an email, My email address is Nolanamartin27@aol.com. Thanks. God Bless.
I hope it will be popular. I want to watch very soon.
Let me be the first in line when the screening comes to the Dallas area. I will keep all in prayer and claim victory that all needs are met!

Excellent way of telling, and nice post to get facts about
my presentation topic, which i am going to convey in university.
For its open nature, any gem in a tension setting will show its beauty but also
its flaws. During the night tike or when the light is warm or weak, it should look like a Ruby.
With the help of these factors you can determine the quality and purity of diamond.
