Bay Street Theater will screen “Pride” on Sunday, January 26, at 4 p.m. The feature film will kick off a series of four unique LGBTQ+-themed films presented by Hamptons Pride at Bay Street on the last Sunday of each month, January through April, with future titles to be announced.
“Pride,” released in 2014, tracks an unlikely friendship forged in the summer of 1984 between a small community of striking miners in Wales and a team of London-based gay activists who help fight their cause. With no end to the strike in sight, the urban activists venture into the countryside to deliver their donation in person and find they have more in common with the people of this struggling community than anyone on either side could have expected. Based on an extraordinary true story, this critically acclaimed crowd-pleaser is funny, moving and sure to warm your heart.
“Bay Street is giving us a wonderful opportunity to create a fun and engaging new social outlet, just in time for the long winter months,” Tom House of Hamptons Pride said. “In the before-dinner hour on last Sundays, we hope to grow what will become a vibrant community film series, and will work to make each screening one you won’t want to miss.”
Tickets are $10 in advance and $15 day of and can be purchased at baystreet.org, 631-725-9500 or at the Bay Street Theater box office on Long Wharf in Sag Harbor.
