ARMISTEAD MAUPIN’S MORE TALES OF CITY
The second of Maupin’s
three miniseries, “Armistead Maupin’s More Tales of the City” was
produced by Showtime in 1998 after PBS caved in to pressure from the
religious right and chose not to continue the saga. It was nominated
for five Emmy awards, including Outstanding Miniseries and Outstanding
Lead Actress (Olympia Dukakis).
“There’s great work here. An embracing spirit that’s hard to resist.” - USA Today
“It’s Maupin all over: Heartiness with tartiness, captured with surprising charm and uplifting urgency.” - Entertainment Weekly
“Hiccup-inducing hilarity, throat-catching poignancy and intentionally over-the- top
melodrama told with flair and skill.” - San Francisco Chronicle
“A cause to celebrate! Gays, straights, amnesiacs, voyeurs and socialites collide in a
heady and quirky romp. A funky universe unlike anything we usually see.”
