Scott Capurro
Howie Baggadonutz will present a fabulous
evening of gay and lesbian comedy featuring
San Francisco’s twisted and hilarious Scott
C a p u rro and Portland’s own radical lesbian
stand-up comic, the very very dangerous Carol
Steinel.
Capurro appeared in Portland last September
as part of the All-Out Comedy show, and was an
instant hit. He was recently declared “the break
through gay com ic.. .the First gay comic to break
nationally” by the San Francisco Chronicle.
Capurro could stay in the closet, pass for straight,
and gamer the success to which a heterosexual
comic is privileged— why docsn ’t he? Why docs
he put himself at the mercy of a potentially
offended and, at times, violent audience? Why
docs he explosively reveal his past and present
neuroses and obsessions in every joke and story
he tells? Capurro approaches these questions
and more with the same honesty and hilarious
self-exploration that has become his trademark.
Steinel is no stranger to Oregon audiences,
having appeared in Homo-Genized as well as her
one-woman shows Tacit Agreements and Losing
Your Mind with Grace and Aplomb plus her
regular stand-up comedy and music appearances.
She may be Lon Mabon’s worst nightmare, but
Steinel will have you in stitches.
The two will appear one night only: Saturday,
Jan. 29 at 8 pm at Echo Theatre (1515 SE 37th
