Quick Dish NY: QUEER TIGER BEAT Standup Show 1.18 at The Duplex

Hey kids, did you ever read Tiger Beat as a teen? I didn’t personally, but I knew some people that were CLEARLY obsessed with the featured heartthrobs of the time. You know, the ones that would belt out ear piercing screams at just the mention of a member’s name. Surely, Backstreet Boys and NKoTB were in there somewhere, right? Friday, January 18th at The Duplex, Nikki Palumbo and Gwynna Forgham-Thrift will host a standup comedy show featuring all their most “boyband-y” friends. You can imagine this ALL-queer comedy crew on their very own Tiger Beat cover in a perfect world (which will be The Duplex for one night in January). This month’s issue of QUEER TIGER BEAT will feature

Jes Tom (Reductress)
Lorena Russi (The Late Show with Stephen Colbert)
Mila Myles
Kelsey Bailey (UCB)
Jessica Henderson (UCB)
and Taylor Ortega (Kim Possible, HBO)
