Finissage

August 26, 6pm. Free Entry

Time to say goodbye to My Dearest Sweet Love, our exhibition about Christopher Isherwood and his longtime partner and lover Don Bachardy. The finissage starts at 6 pm, with curator Kevin Clarke, SMU co-founder Wolfgang Theis, Berlin correspondent Derek Scally (“Irish Times”) and freelance journalist Mary Katharine Tramontana (“The New York Times” and ”The Guardian”) discussing the lasting impact of this very early public gay partnership. The amazing Dame Leyla will perform a few cabaret-inspired show tunes. To quote the legendary Isherwood creation Sally Bowles: “Bye bye, mein Herr. Es war sehr gut, mein Herr.”
