The movie will have its Tennessee premier at Jamison Hall in The Factory in Franklin, on Thursday, Oct. 8th at 7pm. Tickets are available to the public by visiting http://tickets.mandiemovies.com/

Amanda (Hannah Montana: The Movie, Becoming Jesse Tate) stars in the new family-friendly film alongside Dean Jones (Disney's The Love Bug) and Lexi Johnson (The Sugar Creek Gang), two actors who also play featured characters in the movie. "My family and I are big Disney fans and working with Dean Jones was such an honor. He is really a Disney legend, so it was an amazing experience to be on set with him." said Amanda.

Waters spent several weeks filming on location in North Carolina and plays Polly, the best friend of Mandie, the movie's main character. Waters will attend the screening with Producers Owen Smith and Joy Chapman, along with fellow cast members.
