The latest mountain-top saw the production scoop the pools in the recent International Independent Film Awards (IIFA).

IIFA is a Californian-based film awards organisation that is dedicated to showcasing and celebrating the many talented independent filmmakers and artists from around the world who share their visions in a powerful, creative and entertaining way.

The Island of Doctor Moron won a number of awards including: Gold Awards for Editing, Soundtrack, Original Song, Costume and a Platinum Award for Choreography.

The show is unique as witnessed by its accession into the National Film and Sound Archives of Australia and the fact that this is the sixth American festival group that has awarded The Island of Doctor Moron, and the 20th festival from 11 countries to either select it and/or award it.

"I doubt many if any Australian projects like this can make this claim," Chris, the co-creator of the show and manager of the project, said.

"It is a wonderful sense of achievement to see Doc Moron still receiving awards from around the world. It demonstrates the timelessness of the show and sense of lasting fun and enjoyment that it gives its viewing audiences."

The producers are now looking to attract large-scale investment to see the live show launched in the USA.

"The show has a potentially huge market not only for the live entertainment it provides but for the range of merchandising that can accompany it," Chris said, "fingers crossed."
