A known cinema that readily does this is the Peckham Cinema...not sure what it's called now. Peckham has a high concentration of black people and i'm not just talking about Nigerians here except of course you're thinking of the Odeon Cinema in Leicester Square where the Hollywood Big guns premiere their films.


Another good cinema which will cut accross both whites and blacks and perhaps might not be too dear is the Odeon Cinema in Surrey Quays. There is a balance of blacks and white in that area and that Cinema is reputable and well known too.

You could advertise on the London buses, sure that shouldn't break the bank. They do welcome advertisement from the black community. My church does advertise the International Gathering of Champions yearly. You could also advertise at bus stops. I could fix you up on the Liverpool street end. That place is the hub of Nigerians at the weekend especially Sundays. There is a Serria Leonian guy who sells Nigerian movies there and believe me, his stall is always like a Beehive ( hmm...that could actually be Medeen! ). My work place isn't too far from there and I can guarantee you that both Blacks and whites would see your advertisement and judging by Genny's picture on your website, it would p**ck their curiousity. I know this is a tastefully done movie so i won't be embarrased to do a little PR on your behalf.
You will be surprised how tough it is to get a place in London... that is a story for another day. All those options you have their have been checked out months ago... Right advertise on the london buses and have you refuse to show up because I charged 30 pounds.... If this easy like dis many people 4 don dey do am since..
