This Sunday in NYC, some of B-Way’s hottest performers will put those countless hours of dance classes to their best use yet: namely by stripping down and showing off their raw talent for the Broadway Bares XXI fundraiser. As a preview of the oh-so-good things to come, heres a sampling of last year’s goods.

I’ll take my boyfriend with his hairy chest over any of these guys.

@erichinnw: Well somebody has to take out the trash, I guess that makes you a garbage men. Manscaping>>>>> Deal with it!

@Xtincta – We all have different preferences, it’s better that we all don’t like the same type. And that was my point, he has a hairy chest, I don’t have to deal
with it. 🙂

I’m confused. Aren’t we supposed to be shocked and disappointed that men are parading around nude to raise money? If this were women then NOW and a bunch of conservative organizations would be raising all sorts of objections.
I don’t have a problem with selling sex per se, but thought I’d point out the inconsistency.

@gryphen: I’m an equal-opportunity supporter of bare bodies. I raise no objections to anybody doffing their clothing (but I doubly support shows like this!)
Here! Here!
@erichinnw: Thank you! seXsphincta needs to loosen up and quit being a bitch. I loves me some fur too. It’s my preference over smooth. But I wouldn’t kick a couple of these guys outta bed either. It’s like getting a soda at the 7-11: Dr. Pepper’s my number 1 choice, but if they don’t have it, I have to go with Coke. These guys are Coke.

Broadway Bares is one of my favorite events all year. Numbers 4 and 10 star Joshua Buscher currently in Priscilla and number 11 is John Carroll currently in Follies which is coming to Broadway. .

Nice bodies, but there isn’t a face on that stage that would make me want to see their bodies. There is a reason a lot of guys work out so hard….to compensate for not having a good face.
Where’s James Earl Jones and Vanessa Redgrave? I’d rather see them.

@Xtincta: Nice of you to judge with your personal opinion. Manscaping just means you aren’t confident enough in yourself to be yourself. If you aren’t confident enough in yourself to be yourself you might as well go deep into the closet unless you already are.

@George412: What do you expect from Broadway? If they had real talent and looks they would be on television or in movies. Broadway is where “stars” go when they can’t cut it anywhere else and can’t make real money doing their craft.
On a side note, this move away from family friendly entertainment to solicit gay dollars is going to backfire in the face of Broadway unless they actually think that gay men will fill seats faster than a family of 4.

@galefan2004: Know your history before you spout: Broadway & Hollywood run on parallel tracks: many people start in the theater before moving on to film/ TV. And many go back & forth.

Manscaping is temporary, plastic surgery lasts for awhile, but tattoos live forever!

Anybody else creeped out by how much older the men in the audience are compared to the guys on stage? I mean, swap out the guys on stage for girls and you’ve got yourself a creepy strip club.

@David: Gee David, I’m guessing when YOU reach the age of the ‘creepy’ older guys in the audience you will stay home with the drapes pulled because you’re just too old and creepy to to out and have a life. Grow the fuck up.
David
@Geoff M: Perhaps, who knows? I’ll let you know. But you’re honestly saying that if it were girls instead of boys on stage and the men in the audience were the same age as they are here, you truly wouldn’t be bothered at all?
