Producer Harvey Weinstein isn’t letting dozens of sexual assault accusations and rape cases get in a way of a night out, as evidenced by his presence at a New York City bar Wednesday night, where he was set to enjoy a night of schmoozing with young creative types. That is, until a few young creative types told him to fuck the fuck off.
Weinstein dropped by Manhattan’s Downtime Bar to attend an event called Actor’s Hour, which touts itself as, “The first speakeasy dedicated to artists. Only writers, directors, actors, musicians, and a few lucky outsiders have the privilege of gaining entry.” Accused rapists, apparently, are also awarded entry, a fact that upset at least a few people in attendance, including actor and playwright Zoe Stuckless, who described Weinstein as “surrounded by a cadre of young women and two bodyguards.”
“He wasn’t hiding,” Stuckless wrote on Facebook after the event. “He came to watch young artists be vulnerable on stage.”
Finally, comic actor Kelly Bachman decided to call out the “elephant in the room.” “I didn’t know we had to bring our own mase and rape whistles to Actor’s Hour,” Bachman said in a video of the evening. Despite receiving a smattering of applause and encouragement, she also received boos; one member of the audience told her to “shut up.” According to Stuckless, the hecklers included event organizers and bartenders.
