Director/wrer David Galligan has filtered much of the gay and lbian experience through this fast-paced mil revue, featurg 22 songs and sketch performed by an outstandg six-member ensemble. Galligan's stagg, gmented by the choreography of Tony Kaye and Kay Cole, is sparse but highly ventive, effectively highlightg the reali and absurdi, humor and pathos of livg an "alternative" liftyle. The mil numbers were provid by many of L.A.'s most gifted wrers, cludg the legendary Billy Barn, whose irreverent openg number, "The Gay '90s," featur the ensemble full turn-of-the-century regalia. The stum are quickly disrd, however, as the sually attired st of three women and three men segue to a seri of illumatg mil and spoken vigt.

The fact that Lee is straight don't terfere wh his handlg of the subject matter, and he would go on to show his directorial expertise films as varied as <em>Sense and Sensibily, Life of Pi, The Ice Storm, </em> and of urse, one of the bt gay-themed movi ever, <em>Brokeback Mounta. It was where what we now regnize as " nostalgia" was born, and The Gay Neti beme a popular settg for films of the 1930s, the 1940s and, to a lser gree, the 1950s and 1960s, by which time was seen as that nocent age before World Wars and atomic bombs. In fact, the "everybody's rich" stereotype stems om a nflatn of this perd wh "The Gild Age" (1876-1896), as the Gay Neti were also marked by enomic prsn and much labor agatn (see Panic of 1893 on The Other Wiki), not to mentn the Spanish-Amerin War.

THE GAY '90S

The natn’s first gay and lbian talk rad show, The Gay 90s, aired om downtown Cleveland, Oh and started off wh a bang. Not lerally, but given the bomb threat lled before the show’s premier broadst on WHK 1420 AM was a possibily. Dpe the potential danger, The Gay 90s aired as schled on March 26, 1993, and beme the untry’s first mercial live, “ll ” rad program by, for, and about the gay and lbian muny. Given Cleveland’s history of settlg... * the gay 90 s *

Even then, the term "Gild Age" (as , "ated gold") was specifilly meant to dite that the good tim were only a surface veneer, wh ser problems lurkg jt beneath (as the Gay Neti themselv later monstrated). This wasn't ually done whout at least a b of irony (ually only satiril or Cloudcuckoolanr works), but wrers and artists returned to the Gay Neti well so often that s nventns beme even more stereotypil.

Ironilly, real life, the Gay Neti were the perd where the world began to move beyond tradnal steampunk/gaslamp fantasy athetics bee of new technologi and movements such as Art Nouve. Whilst Jeev and Wooster is set The Roarg '20s (or perhaps more accurately, Genteel Interbellum Settg), one story revolv around Sir Watks Basset's Compromisg Memoirs (and the multu of parti who sire the stctn thereof) of the var thgs he and other proment personag did durg The Gay Neti. The openg for Cheers starts off showsg the Gay Neti and then gradually go through the s — and one episo, Rebec disvers that the bar, which opened 1889, will soon have s 100 year anniversary.

Though Disney lived there the early 20th century, the athetic of Ma Street is very remiscent of the Gay Neti, plete wh ice cream parlor, horse drawn and horsels rriag, and a barbershop quartet.

Shortly after his appotment, The Pla Dealer asked Harris for an terview regardg the crisis, sistg on referrg to him as a “homosexual” (as opposed to gay) nsultant, as was the newspaper’s policy at the time. The first half of the weekly two-hour program volved gut terviews, and there were notable on cludg, Harris’s words, “movers, shakers and founrs of the gay civil rights movement.

Arbron, the rad ratgs agency, timated that 20, 000 listeners tuned to The Gay 90s on a typil night – perhaps more on a clear night when the AM signal strength was strong enough to reach listeners as far away as Akron or Canton, maybe even the “boondocks, ” Harris quips.

From there, The Gay 90s aired on Sunday evengs – a time slot Harris preferred, believg that his target dience was more likely to be home (and tuned ), not partyg one of Cleveland’s many gay bars. Seeg the opportuny and the need, Harris offered his voice as he opened the every show wh this greetg: “Good eveng Cleveland… Wele to The Gay 90s, the voice of Northeast Oh’s gay and lbian muny.
