Created and Performed by Zachary Clause
Directed by Reed Whitney
The year was 1971. Bette Midler was on the verge of stardom, and Barry Manilow was still unknown. Together, this duo performed regularly for the shirtless homosexuals of The Continental Bathhouse. Zachary Clause playfully summons the ghosts from a mythical moment in queer history in his recreation of one of Bette's final performances at The Baths. Bring your own towel things might get steamy as we try to answer the age old question What becomes a superstar most?
