Congrats to Melanie Tait on the release of 'The Appleton Ladies' Potato Race'

Congratulations to screenwriter and playwright Melanie Tait on the release of her feature adaptation of her hit play The Appleton Ladies' Potato Race. The movie was produced by EQ Media for Paramount Plus and Channel 10 and aired last night.

When Penny Anderson returns home in time for its ‘world famous’ potato race, she’s outraged that the men’s first prize pays out $2,000 and the women’s prize is only $200? She swings into action to right this wrong, pitting family against family, sister against sister, potato racer against potato racer.

You can check out the trailer for the film here or much the feature on Ten Play or Paramount Plus.
