Join us on Tuesday SEPTEMBER 23rd for a DIVINE dining experience!!!
It’s FORKS & FILMS at The Southside Speakeasy! We are excited to be showcasing the queer cult classics we have all come to know and love.
September’s feature is none other than a classic from the Pope of Trash himself John Waters it’s his first mainstream hit HAIRSPRAY!
When Tracy Turnblad (Ricki Lake), an overweight teen, auditions for a spot on a popular teen dance show, she beats out the spiteful Amber von Tussle (Colleen Fitzpatrick), winning over Amber's boyfriend (Michael St. Gerard) in the process. After meeting some black students at her school, Tracy begins to push for more racial integration on the dance show. This gets her into trouble on many sides, especially with Amber's pushy parents (Sonny Bono, Deborah Harry).
You’ll have 2 chances to catch the showing:
