Remember having my only visit here. Paid for a tour. Down those stairs... Told to take clothes off and place in locker in bathroom. He locked the door. Twenty minutes later I left to go back to my friend I came with. As of April '23 is Paddles still open?

It's closed. ~ Editor

"Adonis Memories, an immersive play that shares stories from patrons of the famed Adonis gay porn movie theater that was a Midtown Manhattan landmark from the 70s-90s," from IN OUR WORDS will be presented on Dec 3 and Dec 10, 2016 at Paddles from 3 pm to 4:30 pm.



From BroadwayWorld.com: ADONIS MEMORIES Docudrama Gets Immersive Staging at Paddles NYC

IN OUR WORDS "is collecting stories and memories from people about their time at the Adonis... You can share a brief paragraph or as much as you like as you answer the questions below. You can fill out your name and email or remain anonymous - whatever is more comfortable for you."

Share your story here. This is a companion to the play "The Adonis" which has been in development and production several years, including a workshop production. The full production of "The Adonis" is planned to debut in New York City this Fall.

See a short video about the play "The Adonia/" and consider making a contribution to help with costs.

Alan Bounville, Artistic Director of In Our Words, has more to say about the background and reason for "The Adonis", how it relates to a "post-AIDS" younger generation of men, PrEP, and the decline of public sex venues — well worth reading.

There is also a Facebook page and Twitter feed.

I will be in NYC for Fleet Week, May 23 pm through May 30. Would love to attend a Daddy's Up. Damn. Any other parties at Paddles or elsewhere?

I'd love to see more reviews and new places posted about other parties at Paddles or anywhere that would be appropriate for this web site. Please post these at least a week or more in advance so I'll be more likely to have it published in time.

Also dude69 is a CFS Member and can be contacted through his CFS Member Profile Page. ~ Editor

I'm organizing a naked disco party here called "Daddy Up" Saturday afternoon April 16, 2016 then again May 21, 2016, Noon to 5 pm, $25.

There'll be lots of sex and entertainment and good music. Come chill and enjoy Manhattan's only open S&M club transform into a cruisy naked dance party.



I'm sorry this was submitted too late for me to look it over and publish it on CFS by your first party date. I hope everybody had a blast and your next party is even more fun.

I saw that Paddles itself did not have a page on this site, and it really is a perfect place to include here. I revised this entry to be more general for Paddles and your event is now listed as the first review.

Thank you very much for posting this, and please do post again if you have more parties. I also hope that we'll have more BDSM clubs and other special-interest clubs of a sexual nature added to this site. ~ Editor
