Martha Wash Disco legends Martha Wash, Thea Austin coming to Dallas For MetroBall RICH LOPEZ | Staff Writerrich@dallasvoice.com It’s been a long two years without it, but MetroBall is back!
The dance party that raises funds for the Greg Dollgener Memorial AIDS Fund is celebrating its 15th anniversary Friday, June 3, at S4 by kicking off Dallas Pride Weekend with a giant disco bang (see the website at GDMAF.org for details).
This year’s event features a trio of musical legends: ‘80s queen Tiffany headlines the show, joined by two icons of disco and LGBTQ allyship, Martha Wash and Thea Austin, along with local favorite, Chris Chism.
This week, we talk to Wash and Austin about their years not just as disco divas but as allies and supporters of the LGBTQ and HIV/AIDS communities.
