Can’t Stop the Serenity 2009 Events Go Live!

We’re delighted to announce that we currently have 20 cities with confirmed event dates! And over 30 cities registered and on board for 2009. Check out our Calendar of Events for more details. In addition to screening “Serenity”, many cities will also be adding “Dr Horrible’s Sing-a-long Blog” to the billing! Join fellow fans and sing along with Dr Horrible, Captain Hammer and Penny in theatrical style! There is a still lot of room for events on the calendar, and we look forward to announcing more as additional cities across the globe join the party. First Round Event Registration is closing soon, so if you are thinking of planning an event (either a Screening or an Affiliate Event) please register by 1 May 2009 to ensure your event is listed on our global merchandise. Some events have already gone on sale, so get in quick before they sell out! As each city starts to sell tickets, a nifty $ icon will be added to the front page listing. We’ll also make an announcement in our Forum and via Twitter. CSTS 2009 merchandise is also available for pre-order in many cities. In most cases, orders close on 15 May 2009 so act fast! Check individual event websites for further details and to view the range of merchandise available in each city. With your help, we're off to a great start. Yet, there's more we can all do to help.
