Vintage gay

Posted on September 22, 2022 | 3 comments

I love this week’s vintage gay photo of Frank and Jack which dates back 80 years ago to 1942. I’d love to know if they were more than friends who liked to share ice creams and photo booth photos.

I dedicate this weekly post, featuring vintage gay photographs, to the men and women who lived in a more critical time where being true to yourself and loving who you want wasn’t always an option and came at a great price. Do you have a photo you would like to share? Email me at bosguymail@gmail.com.

Little Christmas Tree Shop of Horrors

Posted on September 21, 2022 | Leave a comment

Ryan Landry and The Gold Dust Orphans return this winter with their holiday spectacular, Little Christmas Tree Shop of Horrors.

Little Christmas Tree Shop of Horrors
Holiday Run: December 1 – 23
At The Iron Wolf Theatre in S. Boston
Get Your Tickets Here!

For those uninitiated, Landry and his creative troupe of theatrical misfits have been entertaining audiences in Boston and Provincetown for more than two decades. The holiday shows in recent years have been absolutely irreverant and hilarious poking fun at gay cliches, social mores / customs, and of course conservative politics.

About Little Christmas Tree Shop of Horrors
Who is killing the somewhat innocent, questionably respectable people of Revere, Massachusetts? And at Christmas, for Christs sake! Nervous Dollar Store manager, Norbert Feinstein knows, but he’s too busy pining for his co-worker, Tawdry and running from his boss, everyone’s favorite holiday villain, Hermione P. Grinchley! Things look pretty bleak for our heroes until they come across the strangest little Christmas tree… a Christmas tree that KILLS!

Monday morning mancandy

Posted on September 19, 2022 | 1 comment

Brazilian hunk Marcel Kaufmann was a Mancandy Monday post back in June and the response was *unsurprisingly* strong so I thought I’d share another photo of Marcel which I pulled from his Instagram account for today’s mancandy post. I edited this a bit but you can see the blurred out original on Insta.

Kibitz with ya tits: Joe Posa as Joan Rivers

Posted on September 18, 2022 | Leave a comment

Joe Posa returns to Club Cafe later this month with his show Kibitz With Ya Tits on Friday, September 30th. The write up about the show says that Joan pulls back the curtain and interviews drag performers Thirsty Burlington and Mizery with their guard down and tits off (out of drag). Posa’s cutting wit as Joan Rivers is sure to entertain.

8:00 PM – 9:30 PM || Friday September 30th

Vintage gay

Posted on September 15, 2022 | 3 comments

Photographer Gideon Mendel’s project The Ward began in 1993 when he started spending a number of weeks on the Charles Bell wards in London’s Middlesex Hospital. All the patients in this ward were dying with the knowledge that there was no cure for the disease. You can learn more about this couple Michael and John and others in the 2018 Metro article, Memories from the heart of the Aids crisis shows true love in a time of terrible tragedy.

I dedicate this weekly post, featuring vintage gay photographs, to the men and women who lived in a more critical time where being true to yourself and loving who you want wasn’t always an option and came at a great price. Do you have a photo you would like to share? Email me at bosguymail@gmail.com.
