Spiritus: No Business Like Dough Business

Highlighting the rich history of one of the oldest and beloved family-run businesses in Provincetown—Spiritus Pizza is a local gem and iconic late-night gathering spot. Featuring homespun interviews with owner John Yingling and many former employees, SPIRITUS explores the challenges faced by the business, the queer community and the AIDS crisis, all against the backdrop of changing attitudes in the town during the 1970s and ’80s. Since its founding in 1971, and through the ensuing decades, Spiritus has remained a vibrant epicenter of activity, resilience, and deeply-rooted history in Provincetown—as well as a slice of pizza heaven!
