"The Apollo has always represented truth." HBO has debuted an official trailer for the documentary titled The Apollo, the definitive doc film about (the past and present of) New York City's iconic Apollo Theater venue located in Harlem. The Apollo first opened in 1914 (as a burlesque theater) and has survived over 100 years, still operating today as an NYC entertainment mainstay. Located on West 125th Street (here) between Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard (Seventh Avenue) and Frederick Douglass Boulevard (formerly Eighth Avenue) in Harlem. The Apollo Theater represents the ongoing struggle of black lives in America, and The Apollo doc demonstrates the elemental role that art plays in that struggle by highlighting the broad range of African American achievement that has been discovered, championed, and thrived on its stage. Check it out. ›››
