The **Sussex Beacon**, the local HIV charity, has announced **£170** was raised from its showing of the documentary **MAISIE** at **Duke of York’s Picturehouse** in Brighton on **Friday, August 5**.

Featuring Broadway classics such as *Lady is a Tramp*, *One*, and *If I Never Sing Another Song*, as well as appearances from some of the UK’s leading drag figures including **Paul O’Grady**, *MAISIE* is a hilarious, heart-warming and often heart-breaking peek into the world of a character more colourful than his gowns.

The **Sussex Beacon** said: “Many thanks to everyone who kindly donated to our collection after the official premiere of *MAISIE* at Duke of York’s Picturehouse.

“The collection raised almost £170, which is very much appreciated! As mentioned, these funds will help the Sussex Beacon support and care for people living with HIV.

“Thank you again to (director) **Lee Cooper** and Duke of York’s Picturehouse for their wonderful support.”
