  • Comptons of Soho
    Q-X clubs t bars t cabaret t life No 1093 18 February 2016 EST. 1986 18 Suitable only for persons of 18 years and over QX wishes the Grande Dame a Happy 30th! RYNBHB[JOFDPNtRYHBZMPOEPO QX_1093_Cover.indd 1 16/02/2016 18:43 Comptons of Soho 30 YEARS AT THE HEART OF GAY SOHO As we celebrate the Grand Dame of Soho’s 30th birthday as an offical gay venue, we have a chat with some of her nearest and dearest. They know her best and they, in addition to their hundreds of regulars, make her what she is. Happy Birthday old girl! Neil Hodgson, Landlord Comptons as a gay bar was evolving long before the 1980’s and there are reports of metropolitan police warnings about sodomy on the premises as early as the 1940’s. It was 1986 that bar was officially declared as gay. I’ve been fortunate enough to have been General Manager here for 17 of those 30 years. Together we have witnessed and survived a lot together, bombings, hate crimes, riots, the loss of some very special people and places over the years including an economic recession and the ongoing gentrification of Soho. Despite my keenness to dress up in uniforms I still only very much remain a caretaker of an institution that belongs to the people that support it also who have made it the solid institution it is today and still she continues to grow. Comptons to me is a real place and its people, it’s also my work and my home.
