Down and dirty meets brains and heart as The Fancy Boys sing, dance, and strip in this hilarious, risque, and all the way gay Vaudeville/Burlesque extravaganza...a Vaudelesque! From
David Pevsner (a creator of "Naked Boys Singing") Starring
Jim J. Bullock, and directed by
Randy Brenner with sets by
James Noone and lights by Jason Kantrowicz. You'll hoot, you'll squirm, you'll laugh your G-strings off. It's the most Fun-comfortable show you'll ever see!
Most will remember Jim J. for his portrayal of Monroe Ficus on ABC's TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT with
Ted Knight. He also occupied the upper-right square on THE HOLLYWOOD SQUARES, was seen as Neil Tanner in NBC's ALF and joined with Tammy Faye Messner to create THE JIM J. AND TAMMY FAYE SHOW. Jim J. most recently played Wilbur Turnblad on Broadway in "
Hairspray".

Guest appearances on TV include ROSEANNE, BOOGIE'S DINER, CONRAD BLOOM, POPULAR, SEINFELD and most recently Nickelodeon's NED'S DECLASSIFIED. He has worked in film with such noted directors as
