The Outrageous Scott Brennan (Comedy Inc) The Fabulous Adam Richard (FoxFM) The Punctual Toby Sullivan (likes bacon) Together they are Talking Poofy. This shambolic show is gayer than the sum of its parts _x0013_ a dangerously drunken panel of poofs talking dirty. Everything you never wanted to know about our people and everything you are too afraid to ask. Talking Poofy was born shortly before dawn on the streets of Adelaide, and has been an infrequent and unwelcome part of the Melbourne comedy scene ever since. Past events have involved turning an audience member gay, creating a Gaydar profile for a guest comedian, and mutilating a Kylie doll. This will be the first ever Adelaide Fringe show for the Talking Poofy team, featuring the kind of late night shenanigans the festival is famous for _x0013_ inebriated comedians, bewildered guests, men in dresses and as little preparation as possible. Imagine Hey Hey It_x0019_ s Saturday if Molly was in charge. Scott Brennan was a writer and star of Ten's Skithouse and Nine's Comedy Inc., and is an in-demand actor, singer and voiceover artist, having recently toured with Spontaneous Broadway and appeared on television in Lowdown (ABC1), Bogan Pride (SBS) and Neighbours (Ten) where he played the semi-regular role of Josh, until he fell in a sewer and died. (Dying in a sewer is not a euphemism for appearing on Neighbours). Adam Richard has spent the last seven years as The Fabulous Adam Richard, on Melbourne's hugely rating Fox FM. In June 2010 he joined SA.FM's breakfast show with Hayley, Craig and Rabbit to present The Dirt every morning at 7:30 and 8:30. Adam has appeared as a guest on such embarrassing ventures as Celebrity Dog School, Hole in the Wall, and The Footy Show, as well as more classy fare, like Sleuth 101 and Spicks and Specks (where his impression of an Australian Idol audition remains the most viewed Spicks and Specks clip on YouTube). Wes Snelling is an award-winning performer with a "beautiful voice, and a wicked sense of comic timing" (The Age, Melbourne). He has been working within the arts industry for over a decade as an actor, singer, writer, comedian, director, production/stage/tour manager and facilitator. Wes is a celebrated Australian artiste whose work has seen him tour throughout Australia, Europe, the UK and most recently New York, New Orleans and the home of Princess Mary, Copenhagen.
