Christopher St: A New Musical -FREE Reading-

June 22nd 2015, as an official kick-off to Pride week, plan to spend your Monday evening enjoying a fantastic time at Mattie's on Main as we present the first public stage reading of our full length musical "Christopher Street."
---
It’s 1978 and three small town, middle-American, young men find their way to New York City, each for their own reason. They find themselves smack dab in the middle of the Christopher Street Liberation Day festival, where they come face to face with a cast of colorful characters and big personalities. They end up in desperate need and are taking under-wing by the gay community. We see a group of friends deal with these boys and with each other in a post-Stonewall, pre-AIDS period where everything was changing very quickly. The musical shows the human beneath the paint of our communities more outrageous characters, and points out how much we can learn about ourselves when we open ourselves up. There will be a staged reading of the script and performances of the entirety of the score. Music and Lyrics by Martino and Seth Gabriel-Mayotte, Book by Seth Gabriel-Mayotte
