GYPSY 83 DIRECTORS CUT
OPENS FRIDAY AT THE QUAD CINEMA NYC
This weekend the 25th anniversary of the cult classic film Gypsy 83 will be celebrated with a twirl and a bang. The film has been completely reimagined as a brand-new Director's Cut, restored in 4K from the 35mm camera negative. Friday 8/14 the new version with 40 additional minutes will debut at the Quad Cinema. The weekend opening begins a theatrical run with a digital release set for later this year.
The 2001 coming-of-age film was inspired by NOTS and we collaborated with director Todd Stephens and the performance legend Poison Eve for a tribute number at the 2026 Night of 1000 Stevies. The film is set to music from The Cure, Cabaret Voltaire and other goth musical greats, and is beloved by gothic believers, gay searchers, and of course Stevie fans.
Gypsy 83 tells the story of goth misfits and Stevie Nicks superfans Gypsy Vale (Sara Rue) and her younger, q***r protégée Clive Webb (Birkett Turton). Sandusky, Ohio is hell on earth for the duo. When they discover a New York City club is hosting a “Night of 1000 Stevies”, the pair hit the road with high hopes that Gypsy will be able to perform. Along the way, they encounter other misfits who pave the way to their salvation, all while discovering profound truths about themselves.
GYPSY 83 is a part of our legacy and we look forward to seeing it reborn for a new generation. The director will appear at the 7:10 Friday and Saturday night showings at the Quad and there will be four showings a day through August 20.
