18th & Grand: The Olympic Auditorium Story (SF Premiere plus Q&A with East Bay Ray) ~ 7:30 PM

The battles that shaped Los Angeles are revealed in this raucous tale of a 20th Century fight palace and the remarkable woman who ran it.

The Olympic Auditorium was a hub of outrageous entertainment for generations, where heroes and villains often came from the neighborhoods of the city, making their mark in the ring, track or stage. Told through the distinctive voices of wrestlers, boxers, punks and skaters, 18th & Grand: The Olympic Auditorium Story remembers a lost, and more interesting L.A.

Q&A to follow the film including East Bay Ray
