From 1993 to 2008, the Showcase Theatre in Corona was one of the most important all-ages music venues of Southern California. Bringing together punk, metal, emo, ska, hardcore and countless other scenes, it built a deep connection of diverse backgrounds unrivaled by any other all ages venue of SoCal. At the heart of it all was Ezzat Soliman, an Egyptian immigrant who helped create a space that would reshape the Inland Empire’s punk and alternative music scene, and a lifeline for its local misfits. The Showcase became a place to discover music, find friends, give unknown bands an honest chance and feel like we belonged to something bigger than ourselves. The Showcase Theatre Documentary captures the blissful chaos, friendships, music and rebellion that made it so unique. This is a story about an outsider who built a sense of home for a generation that still resonates with the people who were lucky enough to witness it.
