Beloved queer-friendly bar Cheer Up Charlie's has officially reopened on Red River. Both their surprise shutter on East 6th and their epic resurrection in the former Club de Ville space has garnered a serious amount of media attention. Media company The Bear has produced a short documentary that demonstrates the institution Cheer Up's became on East 6th, and Mockingbird Print captures the gigantic lines and packed house at their grand-reopening. Check out both videos below.
