Hot from San Francisco!

Former child star Danny Pintauro (best known for his eight-year run as Jonathan Bower on ABC-TV's Who's The Boss) performs his "breakout" role as a down-in-his-luck gay hustler with a heart of gold. Direct from a sold-out Off-Broadway run, this play takes place in the past, in the present and in the infinity of Gary's mind. Armed with his belief that things will work out for the best and wearing his lucky leopard print underwear, Gary dreams about kissing somebody -- anybody. However, along the way, he finds himself in the Big Apple addicted to phone sex, attending memorial services for strangers and passing out at the memory of Cream of Wheat boxes. His affinity for strange situations leads him through an unforgettable circle of porn stars, deaf transvestites and a dog named Rodney. The Velocity of Gary is a powerfully moving play about a young hustler learning too much too fast.
