About this event
Wombats SA
Fundraiser Movie Night - Elvis!
Wombats SA / Natural History Society of SA preserve and protect an estimated 2000+ wombats and other native flora and fauna on our reserves. We aim to to purchase more land and make all our reserves better so we can conserve more of the Southern Hairy-nosed Wombat's environment. They deserve a chance to live out their natural lives without competition from farm animals and threats by human activity.
SHN Wombats are the Fauna Emblem of SA! Raising awareness and money with this movie fund-raiser will allow us to expand our reserves and continue our very important research and on-going conservation work.

Elvis movie - Information
From Oscar-nominated visionary filmmaker Baz Luhrmann comes Warner Bros. Pictures’ drama “Elvis,” starring Austin Butler and Oscar winner Tom Hanks.
The film explores the life and music of Elvis Presley (Butler), seen through the prism of his complicated relationship with his enigmatic manager, Colonel Tom Parker (Hanks). The story delves into the complex dynamic between Presley and Parker spanning over 20 years, from Presley’s rise to fame to his unprecedented stardom, against the backdrop of the evolving cultural landscape and loss of innocence in America. Central to that journey is one of the most significant and influential people in Elvis’s life, Priscilla Presley (Olivia DeJonge).
Principal photography on “Elvis” took place in Queensland. Rated PG 13+
