The Stonewall Inn
for a screening of
Come Back Once More So I Can Say Goodbye:
Passion, Struggle, Loss and Freedom; Gay Life in NYC 1965 - 1995
Come Back Once More was originally performed live at the Alvin Ailey Citigroup Theater in 2015 and co-produced with Dancers Over 40. It was fun, sexy and moving. The production was reprised June 14th - 17th, 2019 and featured a cast of 40 dancers, singers and musicians from Broadway and major dance companies whose ages ranged from 25 - 75.
The two-act multi-camera show is beautifully edited and runs two hours with intermssion. Our screening includes an Entr'acte with portraits of loved ones who passed to AIDS. Tony-nominated John Herrera recites their names and performs in the show.
Chauncey Dandridge, our co-host, will meet us at Julius on 10th Street and Waverly Place at 4:00 for a brief history of the historic sip-in at Julius Bar with fabulous burgers, vegie options and drinks available for purchase. We then walk over to Stonewall at 53 Christopher Street for the true story behind the Stonewall uprising and at 6:00 go to the lounge upstairs for the screening.
Join us anywhere along the route. Please keep in mind the film begins promptly at 6:30. Reservations are not required, but RSVP's are encouraged so we have a general head count. Cast members will be in attendance.
To honor those who fought for their rights and lived through the era, our event is a fundraiser for the Stonewall Community Development Corporation, Paul Nagle, Founder and Executive Director. The organization's mission is to see older LGBTQ adults in affordable and welcoming housing, with access to medical and mental health services.
A suggested donation of $20.00 is much appreciated.
