East Side Story (1988)

"A musical comedy. A New York story."

This 1988 cult classic was an urban musical comedy set in the gritty gregarious barrio of The Bronx. Written by ERIC FLOYD, who also co-starred in it as the over-the-top madcap showman & choreographer; 'Razz (w/outrageous hair design by the incomparable styist to the stars on his 1st movie gig & star client, GERARD DURE')'; this film also holds the distinction of having been cast by ERIC FLOYD as well, who discovered & theatrically trained young yet still enduring Latin stars, most notably among them but not limited to the theatrical debut of Puerto Rican superstar, MARC ANTHONY.
