TRAPPED IN THE CLOSET IN SF On March 21, SF360 Film+Club returns to Mezzanine with TRAPPED IN THE CLOSET SING A-LONG. The night will be an exploration of R. Kelly's artistic canon, complete with audience participation throughout (starting with a rapping contest). The event will feature R. Kelly's 45-minute hip hopera video Trapped in the Closet; a remake a high school student made for a class project; several of R. Kelly's classic early videos like "Sex Me" and "Bump and Grind;" and, of course, general R. Kelly celebration. It all starts at 7 pm. Tickets are $8 at the door, but you can email [email removed] for $5 tickets. Must be 21+ to attend.
Trapped in the Closet is a hip-hop opera released by R. Kelly in 2005. It is an astonishing creation ? both for its creative music and equally creative narrative ? and, as R. Kelly himself says in the director's commentary, a work for the ages. This show is guest curated by our good friend Henri Mazza of the Austin, Texas-based Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas. SF360 Film +Club is presented by the San Francisco Film Society, Mezzanine and Rehab. It is sponsored by SFWeekly and 7x7. SF360 Film+Club is a monthly event, and past events have included NEXT: A Primer on Urban Painting, Wholphin and COLMA: The Musical. www.sffs.org www.mezzaninesf.com www.drafthouse.com www.sf360.org
