Al Goldstein wrote a review in Screw Magazine on the Frisco Theater in 1977 and highlighted myself in the review as I worked there. Upstairs on the right there were “Peeps”.The windows were opened at that time. It was up a large set of stairs from the street. To the left upstairs there was a small theater. The Frisco which we called Black Jacks was the very first theater in NYC to host live S&M Shows. A year later Belle Du Jour began presenting S&M shows a few blocks south of 42nd St. Then Show World on 8th Ave. caught on, The Star Ship Discovery night club on 42nd St and many other venues. It all began at the Frisco Theater.
