About this event

This award winning, down and dirty documentary traces the seven-year history of the punk/drag NYC party, SqueezeBox! This wild and fascinating story is told through electrifying performance footage and interviews with various celebrities and underground New York club legends. Ditching the tradition of lip-synching, SqueezeBox! featured drag queens singing live rock covers at New York club Don Hill's during the mid-'90s. All were welcome, but greeted at the door with a sign warning them to “fuck off if you can't handle it.” Featuring appearances by Debbie Harry, John Waters, Jackie Beat, Misstress Formika, Lady Bunny, and Rudy Giuliani.
