Photo Flash: The Gospel According to Wendy Ho at Ars Nova
Ars Nova presented Wendy Ho in "The Gospel According to Ho" on Friday, December 14 at 11PM at Ars Nova (511 West 54th Street). Ben Rimalower directed; Brian Nash as musical director.
"Blasting straight out the ass of New York City's underground comedy scene, Wendy Ho blurs the lines between music and illness. She will steal your purse, warn you about the dangers of flossing your teeth before oral sex, and demand that 'you feather Susan's Loochey.' All of these subjects and more are elegantly penetrated in 'The Gospel According to Ho.' Expect old school rhymes and one ho's own take on healing and self love," explain press note.

Raised in a trailer court, and overindulged with too many episodes of "227" and "Good Times", Wendy Ho, self-proclaimed Nubian princess, hasn't always been black. After moving to NYC from Kansas City, she spent years on the streets of Harlem hustlin', hoin', and flowin'. Ho started writing songs about her experiences as a white trash gurl gone ghetto ho in Harlem, USA. The Ho & Mo Show was widely acclaimed by audiences during her nine month residency at Therapy in NYC. Her very own monthly variety show, The Wendy Ho Show at Caroline's on Broadway featured headliners Judy Gold and Susie Essman. Her debut video, "Bitch I Stole Yo Purse," is currently running on LOGO TV's "NewNowNext". www.wendytheho.com
