Queer On Their Feet – An Evening of Stand Up Comedy and Improv coming to Stockton, CA

Saturday April 18, 2009 8:00 PM at Valley Ministries MCC Stockton, CA

Don’t let the venue fool you! This is not a religious based show. The church is generously providing the space for the show in Stockton.  This is a hilarious comedy show for everyone, straight or gay!

                                          
Queer On Their Feet is coming to Stockton!  The Troupe features Jennie McNulty, Daniel Leary, and Diana Yanez.  Queer On Their Feet is a refreshing and hilarious show that has each comic doing about 15 minutes of fabulous stand up and then that is followed by the 3 together onstage playing improv games with suggestions from the audience. Every show is unique, fun, and totally hysterical.

Jennie McNulty – can currently be seen on MTV Network’s LOGO channel in the comedy special “One Night Stand Up”.  She can also be seen bi-weekly in her walking talk show, “Jennie McNulty Presents: Walking Funny With…” on LOGO’s AfterEllen website (http://www.afterellen.com/taxonomy/term/3789 ).  She has traveled the world doing comedy – literally.  In addition to headlining in comedy clubs all over the US and Canada, she has entertained the troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. She also does comedy in more peaceful settings as one of the favorites of Olivia Cruises and Resorts. Jennie spends her summer seasons performing nightly in Provincetown, MA and has performed at The Toronto Gay and Lesbian Comedy Festival; The “Dinah Shore” event; and dozens of Pride events coast to coast.  Jennie also produces the popular “Rainbow Comedy Night” in Ventura, CA as well as the Gold!
