    What an honor to have the former 4 term Tampa Mayor Dick Greco & Radio Celebrity Dan Maduri to ask us to be on his highly rated radio program on Tampa radio station, News Talk 820 AM. He called and said directly as the mayor always had.

     ” With Same -sex Marriage now legal in Florida, Gays in the Tampa news, I want you & Mark to come on my radio show! I want you to help educate my listeners.”

    In historic GaYBOR /Ybor City our store, ” MC Film Fest “ Gay Pride Store & GLBT Information Center is located at 8th Ave & 15th Street in what was for 50 years the home of Dick Greco’s parents hardware store, ‘ King -Greco Hardware.’ Dick also grew up in the diverse Hispanic/ Cuban/ Italian area of Tampa, Ybor City. We have pictures and bullet holes to prove his stories!

    The noon time weekly Monday radio show focused on a different subject matter for his huge statewide audience, Gay life in Tampa.

     We have had many great visits with the former mayor and his lovely doctor wife, Linda. Dick asked us to go on the air and talk about local & state LGBT issues and help educate and inform his audience. Here is that interview in 4 parts.

Tampa, FL- January 9, 2015- The unique and imaginative theatre piece, Love Letters by A.R. Gurney, a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, will be presented in celebration of Valentine’s Day by ArtsFusion.

This charming, poignant play centers on just two characters, Melissa Gardner and Andrew Makepeace Ladd III. Using the epistolary form sometimes found in novels, they sit side by side at a table and read the notes, letters and cards – in which over nearly 50 years, they discuss their hopes and ambitions, dreams and disappointments, victories and defeats – that have passed between them throughout their separated lives. Audiences love this show! Join us to celebrate Valentine’s Day!!
“A wonderfully diverting fun fest! Constantly amusing and rewarding.” –The Mirror.
