Doric Wilson's The West Street Gang at the Eagle NYC
by Rebecca Russo - Jul 30, 2016
Wilson's play, originally produced at The Spike, was written three years before the Ramrod leather bar massacre in November 1980, in which a man armed with a machine gun shot eight people, killing two. It is a dark, comic look at the bar's patrons and their attempts to defend it from both physical attacks as well as political attempts to close it.
