Members Lucky Posted January 28, 2012 Members Share Posted January 28, 2012 Naked Boys Singing, for 13 years a staple of sorts in the New York theater scene, is closing. Some 291,000 people have seen 71 different performers take it all off to sing for their supper. The show raised $256,963 for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. Having seen it, it was just a mildly entertaining show, although the number "beat your meat' does tend to stick in the mind. Now, without looking, who can name the two porn stars who were in the cast?

Guest EXPAT Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I saw this show in London and in New York City. While it wasn't the best musical theatre, it was very entertaining. I'm glad I saw it. It played in LA for a short while as well but I never made it here even though I knew some of the guys in the production. Something tells me that people thought their performance was a bit short. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TotallyOz Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I saw this several times when it first opened and thought it was fantastic. I knew several of the actors and loved seeing them naked. One of them told me they were not allowed to get an erection on stage but it was hard at times as he was gay and turned on by the cast. I took my mother to see this as well. She loved it and talked about it for years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Lucky Posted January 28, 2012 Author Members Share Posted January 28, 2012 My niece also loved the show, taking her friends to see it a second time. At least they didn't come to the Gaiety! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TampaYankee Posted January 28, 2012 Members Share Posted January 28, 2012 Saw it ten years ago with an escort I'd engaged overnight. Both he and I had no problem finding that guy that appealed to each of us - different guys, hot in their own way. Fun show if not grand theater. I found it interesting that the guys could perform in the all-together without missing a step or even slight stage shyness. But then they were pros. Nice memories on several levels. :frantics: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members marcanthony Posted January 29, 2012 Members Share Posted January 29, 2012 My friend Matthew, who is the star of this current film festival flick: http://www.facebook.com/goingdowninlalaland was in Naked Boys Singing for a short run. The great thing about that was that I could go and look at him naked under the guise of supporting his professional development! Wow... hopefully he never visits this site now that I admitted that (awkward moment next time I see him) LOL... who can blame me???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
