Add Review/Comment

Marga Gomez, named “Best Comedian, 2009 and 2008” by the San Francisco Bay Guardian and seen on LOGO and Comedy Central, will be performing at this event with her gay boyfriend Marty Grimes (semi-finalist of Toronto’s Great Canadian Laugh Off, 2009). Marga has performed her comedy at San Jose Rep, was named Grand Marshall of The San Jose LGBT Parade in 2007, and is back in the Bay Area after a five week tour of England and Scotland. Marty Grimes is an up-and-coming comic at Bay Area comedy clubs.

The comedians will tackle politics, race, sex, pop culture and Prop 8 in this high-voltage, politically incorrect show, recommended for audiences eighteen and over.

Dedicated fans can purchase a very limited and exclusive “Gay Marga” ticket for $25. The ticket includes a special meet & greet reception with Marga at 6pm along with delicious munchies, drinks to whet your whistle and admission to the 7pm show.

    I am a spoken word artist who has never slammed. I saw the movie, though. I've never been. I hope to come down soon and rep the scene!

    Nga mihi aroha no nga iwi maori o Aotearoa. E te rangatira, e te kairaranga purakau, e te hoa, tena koe! Vincent - I was privileged enough to see your work, and to meet you in Wairoa, Aotearoa NZ a number of years ago at the Inaugural Indigenous Film Festival. Thank you for such a powerful statement. I had to stand and acknowledge the deep-felt emotion that your work invoked in me. This was the right way for me to talk to you, brother to brother, through whaikorero. As well, seeing Ron His Horse is Thunder reminded me of the healing powers of the descendants of those who suffered way back then. He reminded me of how men of today need to talk to the men of tomorrow and teach them the ways of the old people. He embodied the spirit of his tipuna, Sitting Bull. My aroha goes to you both, and to our tipuna who have already walked their trail of tears. Collapse
