Pretty Red Dress

Pretty Red Dress Start Date: Saturday 2/17/2024 — End Date: Saturday 2/17/2024 Admission:$20.00 A spirited, life-embracing, confident first feature by Dionne Edwards, set to the beat of Tina Turner. Released soon after Turner’s death, her energy pervades the film. A working class black South London family, Travis is just out of prison, and his wife Candice aspires to make it big on stage. Their daughter Kenisha is a troubled adolescent. Mother and daughter face discovering Travis’ concealed desire to wear the sparkly, red dress he bought for his wife for her audition. About masculinity, family, sexual fluidity and shame, the ending offers a defiant assertion of freedom. Saturday February 17 at 9:00 PM, Vogue Theater. For those attending Mostly British’s joyful late night presentation of PRETTY RED DRESS are asked to wear red or to dress in full drag if the mood suits them. Patrons will be treated to red heart-shaped chocolate truffles donated by Carol Gancia of Kokak Chocolates, the gay-owned and operated chocolatier in the Castro.
