The Gale (in LA)
June 24 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm
$20THE GALE is an entirely improvised comedy show that premiered on the Groundlings stage in 2015 and has been sailing (I’m sorry) out performances ever since. Created by Chris Eckert, The GALE features some of the best and funniest queer (or LGBTQ) improvisational actors in the United States. Every so often, we get together and celebrate all the joyously queer things about the world. Why then, you might ask, do we title our show after a sometimes destructive weather pattern?
…Because queer folk have historically disrupted the normal ‘patterns’ of society, and often for the better. Be it Leonardo DaVinci or RuPaul, Martha P. Johnson or Harvey Milk, Barbara Gittings or Pedro Zamora, we’re constantly breaking through glass ceilings and using the shards to create intricate chandeliers of change, lighting the way for the next generation.
That was way too many metaphors. But you get it.
By the way, did you know DaVinci spent his free time drawing erotic doodles? When he wasn’t inventing, he was drawing dicks. Look that shit up.
