PINKY RING COMEDY Presents an intimate evening with two of the best in BOSTON and North Shore comedy, Paul Gilligan and Paul D’Angelo Thursday June 9th at MAGIA in Danvers, MA. It’s another PINKY RING COMEDY masterpiece with The BOSTON GUIDO and MATT MISCI bringing two headliners PAUL GILLIGAN and PAUL D’ANGELO to the stage for a DINNER SHOW at one of the newest, hottest Italian Restaurants on Route 1. PAUL GILLIGAN- Paul Gilligan is one of the most requested comedians in Boston, bringing down the house with an attitude first developed as a high school class clown, and with material culled from his life as a blue collar worker, husband and father. In addition to headlining in Boston clubs, golf tournaments, fundraisers, roasts, and other events, Gilligan has appeared on NESN's Dirty Water TV and is a regular on the networks's, Charlie Moore Outdoors with the Mad Fisherman. Among the national headliners he's performed with are Pat Cooper, the Amazing Johnathan, Dom Irrera, Dave Chappelle, Brian Regan, Gilbert Godfried and David Alan Grier, as well as Boston-boys-gone-national Dane Cook, Lenny Clarke, Nick DiPaolo, Joe Rogan, John Pinette, and Maine's Bob Marley. At one point, he hosted his own weekly shows at two Nick's Comedy Stop locations, in Framingham and Saugus. A licensed electrician, he is often requested to work for trade association groups, including as master of ceremonies at the Boston Construction Awards. While not on the comedy stage, Gilligan is devoted to his family and community, where he's particularly active in youth sports. PAUL D’ANGELO- comedian/writer/actor that The Los Angeles Times calls “…quite likely the funniest entertainer you’ve never heard of… yet”? Paul Murphy spent almost eleven years as an Assistant District Attorney, supervising several of Massachusetts’s busiest courthouses, before building a reputation as a noted criminal-defense trial attorney. The unexpected twist to this story is that, for nine of those years, under the pseudonym of Paul D’Angelo, Paul was simultaneously becoming one of the nation’s top standup comedians. Combining an energetic, charismatic stage presence and spontaneous improvisational talent with an endless array of intelligent humor delivered in an animated style that grabs and holds the attention of crowds everywhere he performs, Paul’s constantly evolving and diverse selection of original material “takes normal everyday experiences and makes them sound absolutely hilarious.” Critics further write that “(Paul D’Angelo) is an energetic performer who gives a peak performance at every show.” “His quick comedic mind,” “unique observations” and “down to earth, stop-and-think humor” “keeps the crowd in hysterics.” “Paul is as funny, and arguably funnier, than just about all of the most famous standup comedians in the country.” Paul recently co-starred in Showtime’s popular stand-up comedy movie, ‘The Godfathers of Comedy’, and has also released two DVDs and three critically acclaimed comedy CDs that are played regularly on national radio. In addition, Paul is the writer/director/co-star of the original sitcom pilot ‘A Fine Mess’ which was featured at the prestigious New York International Independent Film Festival. Although Paul is known to comedy devotees as a prolific creator of intelligent, introspective and reflective humor that everyone can relate to, there are still numerous comedy routines, funny stories and anecdotes that Paul rarely gets an opportunity to share with his live audiences, so he has written a hilarious collection of those eclectic musings in multiple award-winning books accessible from his Amazon authors page. . .
