Few today remember the story of Jobriath, a brilliantly talented rocker who Elektra Records marketed to glam rock fans as an authentically gay American David Bowie. But what could have been a turning point for music instead became a cautionary tale as 1970s audiences and critics rejected the flamboyant performer. Director Kieran Turner painstakingly traces Jobriath's fascinating life from his childhood to his untimely death, using rare archival footage and interviews with the singer's closest friends.

Come early for legendary songstress Ann Magnuson's Jobriath and David Bowie tribute show! (See ANN MAGNUSON LIVE PERFORMANCE: BOWIE CABARET AND THE JOBRIATH MEDLEY)
