The Pride Month installation at The Cabot Theatre continues the sustaining creative relationship between the Beverly, MA venue and the David Bieber Archives.

Artifacts for this total theatre exhibit are selections from the Archives' two million items collection.

This spectrum of high and low culture celebrates Pride Month from historic, whimsical, dramatic and creative endeavors.

Included in this immersive experience is ephemera ranging from Greta Garbo on the cover of a 1933 Motion Picture magazine to a vintage Stonewall flyer. Posters showcase Keith Haring's art, Bad Dream, the first Trans superhero to appear on TV and The Rocky Horror Show "alive" tour.

Also on display are original photos by Philin Phlash and Elsa Dorfman, a first edition of Randy Shilts' groundbreaking AIDS epidemic book, And The Band Played On, as well as an autographed Little Richard LP and a Lady Gaga "Born This Way" audio "singing" toothbrush.

It's the evolution of a movement, with selections from the worlds of pop culture, punk music, publications, politics and protests, all from the David Bieber Archives. Ani DiFranco to Elton John to Brandi Carlisle to Lou Reed, Queen to Barbara Streisand to Ru Paul: It's all at the Cabot Theatre during Pride Month!

Our dear friend Dave Tree is up to no good once again! Mr. Tree played a pivotal role in the evolution of the David Bieber Archives and we are sooo proud of his relentless energy and we know that he is sooo proud of his latest line-up and legacy. Cheers! Enjoy!

****FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE****

Greetings,
I am happy to inform you that after 25 years, TREE has released new music! Established in 1988, TREE has reformed and at last recorded new material. The new "Cheats at Golf" video is directed and produced by Rod Webber. The song was recorded at Galaxy Park Studios by Richard Marr and mastered by Dan Randall at MAMMOTH SOUND MASTERING. "Cheats at Golf" combines hardcore punk, politics, journalism, and sportsmanship into one song. Golf is a gentleman's sport played with your friends so if you are willing to cheat at golf on your friends, what else are you willing to cheat on? Speaks volumes of your character, so turn that up to 11.

"Cheats at Golf" is the first song of six songs to be set free from the upcoming release "Through the Darkness". TREE plans on releasing a song at a time with an accompanying video, online soon available on vinyl. The new material, much like the old TREE material, is a very critical view of our current political, social, and economic realities conveyed with a sense of urgency and humor. A metaphor for what the people have been experiencing "Through the Darkness" hopes to bring the people back into the light. Music makes a difference.
