Robin Williams calls Marga Gomez 'a lesbian Lenny Bruce.'

“Gomez beguiles” Time Out NY
“Deliciously Cheeky …A Comic Marksman” (New York Times)
“Gomez beguiles” (Time Out New York)
“She pushes buttons, pushes the envelope, and pushes the boundaries of all conventional wisdom” (The Washington Blade)
“Marga Gomez gives me laugh-gasms through the roof!” (Annie Sprinkle International Porn Star and Sexologist)

“All That Gomez” is funny, fired up comedy for anyone, gay or straight, who has ever farted during orgasm, tipped a Cher impersonator too much and tried to get change, or struggled to quit smoking marijuana only to discover “it’s not the weed you’re just a lazy overeater.” “All That Gomez “ will be presented at Royal Vauxhall Tavern before it moves to The Edinburgh Fringe at The Zoo Southside. Gomez last performed in the UK fifteen years ago in her serio- comic piece “Memory Tricks.

Clare Bayley, writing for The Independent said “Gomez has all the comic technique of the old school with emotional truth thrown in” and Gillian Haig of The London Evening News gave Gomez five out of five stars. After a fifteen year absence Marga returns to London, a heterosexual friendly lesbian, an anglo loving Latina, with a viewpoint ranging from daffy to smutty.

Raised in New York City by a Cuban comedian father and Puerto Rican dancer mother, Marga Gomez inherited no mambo skills but a comedy persona that is energetic, endearing and provocative. As one of America’s first openly Gay comedians Ms. Gomez has appeared on HBO, Comedy Central and the LOGO network. Her career was profiled in the 2004 documentary “Laughing Matters” (All Out Films.) Ms. Gomez has been a featured performer at Montreal’s Just For Laughs Festival and was presented at London’s ICA, Amsterdam's Triple X Festival and Edinburgh’s Assembly Rooms. Ms. Gomez currently lives in San Francisco, California where The San Francisco Bay Guardian named her “Best Comedian 2008”. She is also the writer performer of eight one woman plays and the recipient of the GLAAD Award for Off- Broadway Theatre and a New York Drama Desk Award nomination. Her acting credits include Off-Broadway roles in The Vagina Monologues , HBO's Tracy Ullman Show, Guiding Light, the Warner Brother’s film Sphere and Batman Forever. For more about Marga visit
