HIT THE WALL by Ike Holter; an ensemble play with music, invokes the sparks that ignited the Stonewall Riots. On a hot and humid night in June 1969 a diverse group of individuals are brought together by their need for a safe space in the biggest underground gay club in Manhattan - the Stonewall Inn...The rest is history. With music, theatricality and beautifully honest dialogue this play pays homage to the hundreds of individuals who came together to fight back against the oppression of the NYPD on the queer community. This site-specific retelling will utilize "The Stonewall Inn" - the very bar that was raided by police on June 28th 1969 as our "stage". A meditation on how Pride began, in the place where Pride began.

The cast will feature Alex Walton*, Kevin Ferguson, Manuel E. Lopez, Jonathan Savage, Alexis Cash*, Alyssa LaVacca, Scotland Newton, Johnny Pozzi, Molly Watts, Tom Driscoll. Live music by Kristin Dausch, Andrew Swackhammer, and Meghan Rose. *These actors are appearing courtesy of The Actor's Equity Association.
