Was hoping this show might be back again this year. Someone -anyone know of its whereabouts?
I loved this show. I keep hoping as do all my friends, that it will be back this year?
Ramsay Ure,
Anyone who has run the gauntlet of the gay dating website Gaydar will enjoy this show. Performed as a musical comedy revue by a cast of six, the show touches on all the frustrations, contradictions and bizarre world that is Gaydar! Essentially light and fluffy, a deeper exploration of how gay men connect online and off could have made the show more interesting. Strangely the show managed to avoid any mention of HIV/ AIDS or commercial sex - both of which are highly relevant in any exploration of the Gaydar phenomenon. However, there were plenty of finely drawn and very funny observations on how gay men behave and one of the cast made for particularly fine eye-candy! Not a must-see, but entertaining nonetheless.
