WIM GRIFFITH
A MULTI-MEDIA ARTIST
ON THE SENSUALITY OF THE MALE
One local gallery in Palm Springs
displays the art of Wim Griffith. Wim
works with a variety of art media and
creates, paintings, murals, and unique
sculptures which are created from
sheets
of steel. The steel is cut with a welding
torch to reveal male figures in a new
way to view the contours of the male
figure. Although the material is hard
and immobile the figures become
alive and evocative modeling erotic
poses in the cut steel as if they were a
spontaneous silhouette drawing.
Griffith a Long Beach native has been
creating art since 1973. After graduating
from Woodbury University in Los Angeles
with a degree in design he worked
painting murals with a designer in
Hollywood. He also created bronze
sculpture busts of numerous celebrities

An Important Message From The Desert
Rose Playhouse
Many of you have no doubt seen an
email or post similar to the one below but
this is still an area we really need your help
in.
square foot facility, we had very high
hopes for the future of the Desert Rose
Playhouse. We have always prided ourselves
on being the “Communities Theatre”
and we strive to make the Desert
Rose Playhouse a place for everyone who
might not ever be given the chance to
have their projects fully staged and produced,
the rare opportunity to see their
vision become a reality and give them a
platform for their art.
If nothing else, please watch the video
below and consider donating, reserving
your seats for one of our many upcoming
productions, sign up to volunteer, or simply
help spread the word in our community.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dso1TQ7drk
We simply would not still be here today
had it not been for the past support we received
from our community that allowed
us to make it through that very difficult
and unprecedented time.
Thank you so much for helping us stay
afloat!
But with this much larger venue, comes
greater costs. Rent tripled, utilities quadrupled,
performance rights for MainStage
productions since Covid have more than
tripled in most cases, and with Covid recommendations
for safe public gatherings,
we are still only allowed to currently sell
half of the capacity for the room to maintain
safe distancing for patrons.
Bottom line is we are currently having to
deal with considerably higher operational
and production costs with only gaining 40
additional seats.
Ticket sales alone cannot take care of all
the expenses we have incurred.
It is because of a supportive community By law, to maintain a 501 (C)3 Non-Profit
that we were able to open and produce status you must cover at least 1/3 of your

A sold out run of 10 shows only generates
around $40,000. That gross is quickly
eaten up by the costs of paying stipends
for cast, crew pay for staff, performance
rights for each show, equipment maintanence
for lighting, sound, projections,
makeup, costumes, set building supplies
and construction on top of rent, electricity,
etc.
No one who dedicates their life to the Arts
in in it to get rich. Quite the opposite I’m
afraid. And with only a few donations in
the last year, these costs hit even harder.
For many of the past weeks there have
been some of us who don’t even take a
weekly pay or stipend.
In short, the future of your community theatre
is ultimately in your hands.
Our fiscal year ends July 31st. We are still
way below the 1/3 coverage by donations/grants
mentioned above and currently
it is a very possible that we will lose
out non-profit status if we don’t turn things
around, and fast!
On top of all of this, our roof is leaking and
continuously getting worse. with the 7 AC
units running in the summer and spring
and the rain we get in the fall and winter
cause multiple areas of dripping in the
theatre. More often than not it is dripping
water on seats, damaging very expensive
equipment and we have recently had a
leak that ruined several of our very expensive
fireproof commercial grade stage
curtains and scrims. At present, we simply
do not have the needed funds to properly
fix these issues and repair and replace the
roof and AC units so the problem is starting
to escalate.
So what can you do?
Community Support is the key to helping
us thrive, helping us survive.
Please take a moment to check out out
multiple options for support below.
Our “Ally” and “Mamma Rose” options
are both monthly and start at only $10.00.
We understand that for some, even that is
not possible but for many of you it would
have no affect on your bottom line while
making a huge impact on the availability
of enjoying the Arts in your Community.
We have around 4,000 subscribers subscribed
to this email list. If even half of
you showed your support via the “Ally”
sponsor option of $10 a month, we’d have
more than enough money to stay afloat
and continue to not only produce high
quality productions, but continue to make
them even better, even greater!
We Thank You So Much for your Continued
Support!
If you cannot donate yourself, please
share this around, make sure that anyone
who wants to help us and donate knows
how and why donating to us benefits the
community.
We have said it so many times before because
it is true, WE CAN NOT DO IT WITH-
OUT YOU!
Thank You!

Peaches Christ’s Long Lost Cult Film All About
Evil Resurrected This June
Natasha Lyonne (“Russian Doll”) Leads an
All-Star Cast
Severin Films Releasing Special Edition Bluray
As Campy Gorefest Debuts On Shudder
Peaches Christ to Host Gala Screenings
Along West Coast
All About Evil combines a wildly imaginative
script with eye-popping buckets of blood.
The film is anchored by a first-class cast:
Natasha Lyonne (“Russian Doll”, “Orange is
the New Black”) as the mad projectionist,
Thomas Dekker (“Terminator: The Sarah
Connor Chronicles”, Kaboom), Cassandra
Peterson (Elvira: Mistress of the Dark, Rob
Zombie’s The Munsters), John Waters muse
Mink Stole (Serial Mom, Hairspray), and Noah
Segan (Knives Out, Looper).
“The Ultimate Valentine to low-budget
horror.” -- SFGATE
Los Angeles, CA - Following a world premiere
at the San Francisco International Film
Festival and a limited theatrical run in 2010,
Peaches Christ’s All About Evil disappeared
underground for years, becoming the stuff
of legend. Now, the demented, bloodsplattered
classic is back for good, courtesy
of a June 10th special edition Blu-ray release
from Severin Films and a North American
streaming release on Shudder June 13th.
The Blu-ray of All About Evil will feature a
brand-new HD restoration of the feature,
along with newly-produced and archival
bonus features for fans to devour. Severin
Filmswill release the Blu-ray on June 10th.
Shudder will release the film on its service
June 13th to subscribers in North America.
Of the film’s long awaited resurrection,
Peaches Christ shared, “For years, the movie
has been unavailable and fans have been
clamoring for it. As the creator, it’s been
frustrating to say the least. I feel like I’ve
been given a great gift from both Severin
and Shudder and am thrilled so many new
people will discover my Evil little baby. The
BluRay and features are truly stunning. I’m
really proud of the film and am hoping the
re-release helps get another feature film
going!”
In the years since the birth of All About Evil,
Peaches Christ has toured the globe, scaring
and delighting audiences. For the past
two years, Peaches has hosted Midnight
Mass with Michael Varrati (Tales of Poe,
“Dragula”), a podcast based on Peaches’
long-running cult movie series in San
Francisco. Every week, the pair go deep into
discussions on the nature and fanbase of
cult cinema, discussing everything from the
To celebrate, Peaches Christ herself will
present the film at “Peaches Christ 4-D
Screenings” along the West Coast, including
the Los Feliz 3 in Los Angeles on June 9 and
the Victoria Theater in San Francisco on
June 11 where the film was shot. Fans in Los
Angeles can also attend a Blu-ray signing

for yourself if it is sensual or erotic.
Whatever you decide Wim’s paintings
evoke in you, he says this of his work in
his bio,
“I have returned the individual human
male in all his finite conscious and
perishable aspects to the realm of
beauty, pain, and frailty.”
Wims paintings also reflect his interest
in the male physique and depict an
eroticism, however, he states this
regarding his art, quote, “I get lumped
into a group of homoerotic artists
because I’m gay and paint men or
sculpt men,” My work is not erotic, but it
might be sensual. I do the artwork that
gay men don’t have to hide under their
bed.” Viewing his work you determine

News on
Today, the conservative majority of United
States Supreme Court struck down a law
that prevents potential corruption from
arising when politicians make large personal
loans to their own campaigns only to repay
them with donations received after Election
Day. Candidates will now be able to take
out millions of dollars in personal loans for
their campaigns that can be repaid after
the election by special interest donors
who are effectively depositing money into
a politicians’ personal bank accounts.
Common Cause filed an amicus brief in
Federal Election Commission (FEC) v. Ted
Cruz for Senate with the Campaign Legal
Center (CLC), Citizens for Responsibility
and Ethics in Washington (CREW), and
Democracy 21.
The federal law, part of the Bipartisan
Campaign Reform Act, limited candidates
from using more than $250,000 in
contributions raised after the date of an
election to repay outstanding personal
loans candidates make to their campaigns.
In 2018, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-T.X.) put $260,000 of
his own money into his reelection and sued
the FEC the following year, complaining that
this law prevented him from paying off the
last $10,000 with post-election contributions.
Last June, the United States Court of
Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit
sided with Sen. Cruz, striking down the limit
on the amount candidates can raise postelection
to repay personal loans to their
campaigns.
Statement of Common Cause President
Karen Hobert Flynn
Today’s ruling is the latest blow struck by
the Roberts Court against common sense
campaign finance laws designed to curb
corruption and potential corruption by our
federal officials. The U.S. Supreme Court with
its current majority has showed its hostility
to effective (and popular) laws enacted
to fight political corruption and ensure our
elected officials are more responsive to the
public, not just the wealthy few. This is the
same Court that has severely weakened
voting rights laws like the Voting Rights Act,
including the Shelby County decision nine
years ago and the Brnovich decision just last
summer.
With today’s new ruling, donors will now
be able to deposit more money into the
personal bank accounts of politicians
after Election Day. As Justice Kagan wrote
in her dissent this morning, “it takes no
political genius to see the heightened risk
of corruption—the danger of ‘I’ll make
you richer and you’ll make me richer’
arrangements between donors and
officeholders.”
Today’s decision creates a shell game that
will only serve to further undermine public
faith in their elected officials. These loans
could run into the millions of dollars and
voters will now not know who bankrolled
a candidate’s campaign until after the
election.

Two Men of
Taunton Project
Part

preamble
Two Men
of Taunton
is about
revolution,
as it
happened.
If you grew up in Taunton, you also
learned it is considered “tidal” (saltwater
mix) for the last eighteen miles and is
characterized by a gentle gradient,
dropping only twenty feet in elevation
over its forty-mile course. Taunton
swamps are full of clay, and Bog Iron,
the only two ingredients needed to
smelt them into cannonballs.
As It turns out, Tanton was the first station
of an endless supply chain to wage war.
It should remind us of the importance
of this first election after a recent coup
attempt that was put down. From the
very first tea party and early British trials,
to our nation’s first flag, and the petty
squabbles of great minds. Because the
second settlement in Taunton started it
the war,
ROBERT TREAT PAINE
Memorial Statue, Taunton
Every schoolchild learns that Geologic
evidence indicates that 10,000 years
ago, the landscape of southeastern
Massachusetts was covered by ice
flows. Retreating glaciers created
a large glacial lake that eventually
drained to become the Taunton River
and its tributaries. This river system
ran through a landscape of glacial
deposition that included outwash plains,
wetlands, and kettle ponds.

Two long-vanished Yankee gentlemen, with
the hope that another generation may find
profit or pleasure in reading of men who
held high seats in the councils of their day.
The fact that a Taunton resident was a
signer of the Declaration of Independence
demonstrates the influence the city had
during the Revolutionary War!

Evan is Heaven
The OnlyFans Star Has the Voice of an Angel
By Robbie Todoro
Evan Peix is heating up gay
dance floors with two
energetic Spanish-language
singles, “Tu Si” and “Me
Elevas.” The songs are part
of a music genre called
“Guaracha,” a Cuban sound
that combines bold lyrics
with hip-shaking tempo.
“I was introduced to
Guaracha two years ago
while in Colombia,” Evan
says. “A cab driver played
Fumaratto’s ‘Me Provocas’
and it literally threw me into
a three-minute trance! I
went into the studio to try
my hand at recreating the
sound. That’s when ‘Tu-Si’
was born.”
Evan Peix was born in New
York but moved to Bolivia
when he was nine years old.

After dropping out of high
school at 18, he moved to
Miami with $500 in his
pocket. A gym buddy
suggested he try stripping
and when he did, he found
it to be, in his words, “easy
as breathing”. It was also
very lucrative. He saved
$60,000, enrolled in audio
engineering school, and
began producing songs
and videos.
“I play instruments, dance,
sing, tumble… give me a
stripper pole and prepare
to be amazed,” he laughs.
He is also a social
advocate. Evan runs “The
Dreamer Project,” an
initiative that raises money
for the needy in South
America. They are currently
raising funds for Niños del
Sol, an orphanage in
Medellin, Colombia.
