SURPRISE STOP ON THE ROLLING MOVIE TOUR THIS TUES NITE!!!.
movie synopsis:
It's all about the night for a med student, a teenage runaway, a lawyer, a drag queen, a high school basketball star, a dealer, and a teacher as they all cross paths in the Ecstasy-riddled Los Angeles underground party scene.

When Galapagos' owners were presented with a crippling rent increase at their old Williamsburg location, DUMBO landlord David Walentas offered them a sweetheart deal on a
century-old horse stable. The soaring, 10,000-square-foot structure has been renovated into a sultry, stunning multilevel event space (and an upstairs smoking patio) that's outfitted with comfy half-moon booths bathed in a red glow.
