Tickets are selling fast for one of the most meaningful film events of the year, with Shaking Not Stirred already reaching 50% capacity within just 12 hours of release. The overwhelming response highlights not only the strength of the story, but the deep connection it is creating within the community.

Written, produced, and featuring Carol Ferrone, Shaking Not Stirred is far more than a documentary—it is a deeply personal and emotional journey into the realities of living with Parkinson’s disease. At its core, the film follows Ferrone’s brother-in-law Ralph, capturing his daily fight to maintain independence while navigating the physical and emotional challenges of the condition.

The film offers “a rare and intimate insight into living with Parkinson’s disease,” presenting not only the struggles but also the resilience, humour, and humanity that define the journey.

Set to premiere on 28 April 2026 at 6:00 PM at Palace Cinema, Moore Park, the screening is positioned as both a cinematic experience and a community-driven call to action.

More Than a Film — A Movement

What makes this event truly special is its purpose.
100% of all ticket sales and sponsorship contributions will be donated to Shake It Up Australia, directly supporting critical research aimed at finding a cure for Parkinson’s disease.

The film also sheds light on the broader impact of Parkinson’s—not only on those diagnosed, but on families, carers, and support networks. Through powerful storytelling, it invites audiences to better understand the condition while contributing to meaningful change.

A Call for Community and Business Support

With tickets already moving quickly, organisers are encouraging the public to secure their seats early and be part of what promises to be a sold-out and unforgettable evening.

Businesses are also being invited to step forward as sponsors, with packages starting from $500. Sponsorship includes:

• Logo placement across all event marketing materials
• On-screen recognition during the premiere
• Public acknowledgement during speeches

This presents a unique opportunity for organisations to align with a cause that resonates deeply across the community while gaining valuable visibility at a high-impact event.

Be There. Make a Difference.

Shaking Not Stirred is not just a film—it is a moment of awareness, connection, and contribution. Whether attending as a guest or supporting as a sponsor, every contribution plays a role in advancing research and bringing hope to those affected by Parkinson’s.

With momentum already building, the message is clear:
This is an event worth showing up for—and one that truly matters.
