Английская Википедия:Funny Gay Males
Шаблон:Short description Funny Gay Males was an American comedy troupe in the 1980s and 1990s, consisting of comedians Bob Smith, Danny McWilliams and Jaffe Cohen.[1]
First formed in 1988 after the performers appeared together on a comedy bill at New York City's Pride Week festivities,[2] the troupe performed a touring comedy show which consisted primarily of each member performing his own solo stand-up comedy set,[1] and also made television appearances on programs such as The Joan Rivers Show.[3]
The troupe also collaborated on the 1995 comedy book Growing Up Gay: From Left Out to Coming Out, which was a Lambda Literary Award nominee in the humor category at the 8th Lambda Literary Awards.[4]
The troupe stopped touring for several years in the late 1990s, with each member concentrating instead on his own solo career.[5] They performed a reunion tour in the early 2000s, with Eddie Sarfaty joining the troupe at this time.[6]
