Gay Gasp: A Queer Comedy Showcase
It’s time to leave your cares at the door and come ready for a night filled with snark, sass, and just the right amount of shade, so grab your friends (and your sequins) and remember that laughter is the best accessory—because honey, nothing is more glamorous than joy.
Saturday April 11th (Rosendale Theatre, Rosendale)
BRONCO: Upstate Boylesque
Spring is in bloom and The Cuban Missile Crisis of Burlesque – Tito Bonito – is making his Hudson Valley debut alongside a bountiful bouquet of beefcakes. Warning: may cause spontaneous applause, excessive fanning, and an entirely new appreciation for garden hoses.
