Naked men, more naked men and acerbic lesbians...



Well, it's a big week here in LA for the penis.

DANTE'S COVE SEASON 3 has a big premiere and party, as well as NAKED BOYS SINGING.

OH, and my buddy Paige Hurwitz is hosting SCREWBALLZ, which I have to tell you is just a fantastic night of humour and outrageous, audacious and gut wrenching laughs. Radio talk show personality (and frequent guest to this blog) Doria Biddle is in the line up.

DANTE'S COVE PREMIERE AND AFTER PARTY
The Party starts at 9:30 pm at ELEVEN Niteclub in Weho. Get there early, they already have 1400 RSVP's.
The screening at the Showcase is VIP and already at capacity.

Also, this Sunday there is a premiere party for the theatrical release of FAT GIRLS. People, GO SEE THIS MOVIE!

This is a gem. It was written, directed and stars Ash Christian who made this when we was only 19. That's right. Then VH1 picked up the series rights and he was off to New York to shoot the pilot. This is a great film from an incredible up and coming queer filmmaker.

REVIEW QUOTES:

"DELIGHTFULLY PREPOSTEROUS"
A seductive deadpan comedy in the style of Napoleon Dynamite by
wunderkind Ash Christian, Fat Girls will leave you smiling.
-Bay Area Reporter

"Cheeky and clever, charming and ultimately infused with a very
strong, important message about self-acceptance. Rich Cline, Shadows on the Wall

"Completely, beautifully made."
– John Cameron Mitchell (Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Shortbus)

"Wry, real, and evidently very satisfying teen-flavored flick"
- Logo Online

"Heart-warming reminder of just how special each of our teenage "gay
self-awareness" and "coming out" stories are. "
- Robert, Urban, AfterElton.com

"Fat Girls" is a hilarious rollercoaster ride that careens to an
outrageous climax. This auspicious debut announces the arrival of filmmaker and star Ash
Christian as a major new talent.

You weren't kidding... BIG week for the penis! God, I wish I lived in LA. I loved Paige Hurwitz on Wisecrack (on Logo) and would love to see her in Screwballz. Hopefully Logo will pick that up, too.

Thanks for all the dish, doll.

Why, oh why, is Screwballz under the Penis Week header? The horror!

Oh. We are in the penis section. Well, nonetheless, thanks for spreading the word about Screwballz! (It's nice for people to know that Page Hurwitz can be seen in real life from time to time.) We're having a holiday extravaganza show in December that we'll try to make as unprofessional as possible. There will be a great after-party with all of our beloved, hilarious, and borderline alcoholic performers. We definitely owe you a few drinks, JD, so come on over to the Acme! Now please put us in the vagina section.
Love,
Your Best Friends at Screwballz
