What happens

Spring Street is an American LGBT web series created by David Beck. The series was a production of The Great Griffon, Beck's non-profit LGBT film company dedicated to "telling tales of the underdog". In addition to Beck, the series stars Alanna Blair, Giordan Diaz, Kate Hodge, Luis Villalobos, Michael Earle-Fajardo, Rosina Fernhoff, and Jennifer Bobbi. It also marks an early role for Mason Gooding as the Bartender at the opera in the final episode of Season One. Dealing with the themes of loss, betrayal, addiction, and the healing power of music, the series focuses on Mr. Christopher, a reclusive piano teacher (played by Beck), his pregnant sister recovering from a heroin addiction (Blair), and a mysterious new student who may or may not have ties to their grandmother's death (Diaz). The first season was released on YouTube in nine episodes between March and May 2017. On March 15, 2017, Zach Stafford of OUT Magazine featured an exclusive sneak peek of Spring Street before its premiere. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
