Okay, no one was as great as Bob Fosse. But the new trailer video for San Francisco’s Folsom Street Fair makes me so proud of my hometown right now! FOLSOM STREET was directed and produced by Aron Kantor, choreographed by Danny Dolan, and features Broadway performer Colin Cunliffe, nightlife promoter Mario Diaz, gender-queer drag queen Grace Towers, local treasure Fauxnique, and a variety of San Francisco dancers and performers. The short film’s creators explain,
San Francisco has long pushed culture boundaries, radical self-expression and sexual freedom. Today awash in stories of the changing face of the city and its quickly eroding creative communities, “Folsom Street” joyously celebrates the rich history of diversity that pushes the limits of raw sexuality that make this city the exciting cultural haven that it has always been.
… The film serves as both a metaphor for the Folsom Street Fair and an example of the possibilities of queer community effort and activism.
Folsom Street Fair 2015 is Sunday, September 27, 11am – 6pm on Folsom Street between 8th and 13th streets in San Francisco, CA.
